    The radius of a sphere, 'r', is equal to the radius of the base of a right circular cylinder. The total volume of these two solids = 73\frac{7}{3
    Question

    The radius of a sphere, 'r', is equal to the radius of the base of a right circular cylinder. The total volume of these two solids = 73\frac{7}{3}πr3\text{πr}^3​. If 'h' is the height of the cylinder, find hr\frac{\text{h}}{\text{r}}​.

    Correct option is C

    Given:

    The radius of the sphere = radius of the base of the right circular cylinder = r

    Total volume =73πr3 \frac{7}{3} \pi r^3​​

    Formula Used:

    Volume of a sphere: Vsphere=43πr3V_{\text{sphere}} = \frac{4}{3} \pi r^3​​

    Volume of a cylinder: Vcylinder=πr2h_{\text{cylinder}} = \pi r^2 h​​

    Solution:

    43πr3+πr2h=73πr3\frac{4}{3} \pi r^3 + \pi r^2 h = \frac{7}{3} \pi r^3​​

    πr2h=73πr343πr3\pi r^2 h = \frac{7}{3} \pi r^3 - \frac{4}{3} \pi r^3​​

    πr2h=33πr3\pi r^2 h = \frac{3}{3} \pi r^3

    πr2h=πr3\pi r^2 h = \pi r^3

    r2h=r3r^2 h = r^3

    h = r

    hr=1\frac hr =1​​
