Answer: Option D

Step-by-step explanation:

You know that the ratio between the radii of the two sphere is 3:5. Knowing this fact, you can calculate the ratio of their volume with this procedure:

[tex]ratio\ volume=\frac{3^3}{5^3}[/tex]

You need to remember that:

[tex]a^3=a*a*a[/tex]

 Then, you can rewrite it as:

[tex]ratio\ volume=\frac{3*3*3}{5*5*5}[/tex]

Finally, you get the the ratio of the volumes of the spheres is:

[tex]ratio\ volume=\frac{27}{125}[/tex] or 27:125

This matches with the option D.

Answer:

The ratio of their volumes is 27 : 125

Step-by-step explanation:

Points to remember

Volume of sphere V = 4/3(πr³)

Where r is the radius of sphere

To find the ratio of volume of spheres

It is given that,  the ratio between the radii of the two sphere is 3:5

V₁ =  4/3(πr₁³)  =  4/3(π3³) and

V₂ =  4/3(πr₂³) =  4/3(π5³)

V₁/V₂ = 4/3(π3³)/4/3(π5³)

 = 3³/5³ = 27/125

Therefore  the ratio of their volumes = 27 : 125
