Solution

Let radius of spheres are r1 and r2.

So, surface area of spheres is 4πr12 and 4πr22.

Ratio of surface area = `(4πr_1^2)/(4πr_2^2) = 1/4`

= `(r_1^2)/(r_2^2) = 1/4`

= `((r_1)/(r_2))^2 = 1/4`

= `(r_1)/(r_2) = sqrt(1/4)`

= `(r_1)/(r_2) = 1/2`

Hence, the ratio between their radius = 1: 2.
