Question

    Find the surface area of the smallest cube that can

    perfectly fit a sphere of volume 2304π cm3 inside it.  
    A 3456 cm² Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 5400 cm² Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 7776 cm² Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 864 cm² Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Let the radius of the sphere be 'R' cm. 2304π = (4/3) x π x R3 Or, 1728 = R3 So, R = 12 So, length of edge of the cube = 12 x 2 = 24 cm Required area = 6 x 242 = 3456 cm2
