Correct Answer: 512


Solution : Let $n$ be the number of balls made.
Given,
The radius of new spherical balls (r) = 2 cm
The radius of the bigger ball (R) = 16 cm
Volume of bigger ball = n(Volume of smaller balls)
⇒ $\frac43\pi R^3=n(\frac43\pi r^3)$
⇒ $16\times16\times16=n\times2\times2\times2$
$\therefore n = 512$
Hence, the correct answer is 512.
