Answer:

3 meters

Explanation:

A sphere is a three-dimensional geometrical object.

Let r denotes radius of a sphere.

Area of a sphere =
4 \pi r^2

Volume of a sphere =
(4)/(3)\pi r^3

As a sphere which area (in square meters) is equal to its volume (in cubic meters) ,


4\pi r^2=(4)/(3)\pi r^3\\\\ r^2=(r^3)/(3)\\\\(r^3)/(r^2)=3\\\\

r = 3 meters
