Ratio of total surface areas = 4πr²:4πR² = r²:R² = 2²:3² = 4:9 .
If the radius of sphere are in the ratio of 2 : 3 then their surface areas are in the ratio of 4 : 9 .
Verified answer
R1=2r r2=3rS1/S2=4×22/7×2r×2r÷4×22/7×3r×3r
=2r×2r÷3r×3r
=4r sqr. ÷ 9r sqr
=4/9
=2/3
2:3 is the ratio between the surface area
