Solution

Diameter of sphere = 21 cm

Radius of sphere =`21/2` cm

Volume of sphere `= 4/3 pir^3 = (4xx21xx21xx21xx21pi)/(3xx2xx2xx2)= (21xx21xx21pi)/(3xx2)    "cm"^3`

Diameter of the cone = 3.5 cm

Radius of the cone `= 3.5/2 = 7/4  "cm"`

Height = 3 cm

Volume of each cone` = 1/3pir^2h xx 1/3pixx3xx(7/4)^2 = (7/4)^2 pi  "cm"^3 `

`"Total number of cones"= "Volume of sphere"/"Volume of a cone" = ((21xx21xx21pi)/(3xx2))/((7/4)^2pi) = (21xx21xx21xxpixx4xx4)/3xx2xxpixx)`
