(Q2).Surface area of a sphere and cube are equal. Then find the ratio of their volumes.

Let a cube with side ‘a’.

Then its surface area = 6a2

By problem, surface area of the sphere = 4πr2

Surface area of the cube = 6a2

∴ 4πr2 = 6a2⇒ r2=
a 2
π
⇒ r = √(
a2
π
) = √(

)a

Volume of the cube V = a3

Volume of the sphere V =
