Answer:

Given:

Radius of large sphere: R1

Volume of sphere: V1

Radius of small sphere: R2

Volume of sphere: V2

R1=2R2

We know that:

Volume of a sphere: 4/3πR^3

Volume of large sphere: 4/3πR1^3

Now we know that R1=2R2(given)

Thus volume of large sphere(V1) 32/3πR2^3.

Volume of small sphere(V2): 4/3πR2^3.

Ratio of volume of large sphere to small sphere is 8:1.
