उत्तर

Let the number of solid metallic spheres be 'n'

Volume of 1 sphere 

= `4/3pi(3)^3` 

Volume of metallic cone 

= `1/3pi6^2 xx 45` 

`n = "Volume of metal cone"/"Volume of 1 sphere"` 

`=> n = (1/3pi6^2 xx 45)/(4/3pi(3)^3)` 

`=> n = (6 xx 6 xx 45)/(4 xx 3 xx 3 xx 3)` 

`=>` n = 15 

The least number of spheres needed to form the cone is 15
