Answer:

8

Explanation:

just do the comparation

Vb : Vs

b for big and s for small

4/3 π rb³ : 4/3 π rs³ (since there are 4/3 and π on both side, we can eliminate them so)

Vb : Vs = rb³ : rs³

Vb : Vs = (2rs)³ : rs³

Vb : Vs = 8rs³ : rs³ (delete the r³ on both side)

Vb : Vs = 8 : 1

so Vb is 8 times larger in volume than the small one
