Correct Answer: 27 : 32


Solution : Let the radius of the hemisphere be $r$.
Given: Radius of sphere = $\frac{3}{4}$th of the radius of hemisphere
Volume of a sphere = $\frac{4}{3} \pi (\frac{3}{4} r)^3 = \frac{9\pi }{16} r^3$
Volume of a hemisphere = $\frac{2}{3} \pi r^3$
The ratio of the volumes of the sphere to the hemisphere is:
$\frac{{\text{volume of a sphere}}}{{\text{volume of a sphere}}} = \frac{\frac{9\pi }{16} r^3}{\frac{2}{3} \pi r^3} = \frac{27}{32}$
Hence, the correct answer is 27 : 32.
