Correct Answer: 72


Solution : Diameter of hemisphere = 36 cm
Radius, $R$ = 18 cm
Diameter of cylinder = 6 cm
Radius, $r$ = 3 cm
Height of cylinder = 6 cm
Let $n$ be the number of cylinders,
Volume of hemisphere = Volume of all cylinders
$\frac{2}{3} \pi R^3 = n × \pi r^2 h$
⇒ $\frac{2}{3} ×\pi ×18^3 = n × \pi × 3^2 ×6$
⇒ $n = \frac{2 × 18 × 18 × 18}{9 × 6 × 3}$
⇒ $n = 72$
Hence, the correct answer is 72.
