The volume of the larger sphere will be 27 times the original.
The volume of a sphere is (4/3)*pi*r³, so if V1 = (4/3)*pi*r1³ and V2 = (4/3)*pi*r2³ the ratio of volumes V2/V1 = r2³ / r1³ = 27 [the (4/3) and pi cancel];
since r2 = (3*r1) then (3*r1)³ = (3³*r1³) = 27* r1³, then divide by r1³ and the answer is 27.

What happens to the volume of a cylinder if the radius and height are tripled?
The original volume is multiplied by 27.
What is the volume of a sphere when the radius is 3x3?
A sphere with a radius of 9 units has a volume of 3,053.63 units3
What is the volume of a sphere if the radius of the sphere is 7 inches?
A sphere with a radius of 7 inches has a volume of 1,436.76 cubic inches.
What is the radius of a sphere with a volume of 972 cm cubed?
volume sphere = 4/3 π radius³ → radius = ³√(¾ volume sphere ÷ π) = ³√(¾ × 972cm³ ÷ π) ≈ 6.1cm
What is the volume of a sphere with radius of 2 m?
Volume of a sphere is 4/3 pi times the cube of its radius.
How does the volume change if the radius is tripled?
It depends on the shape. The volume of a sphere will increase differently to the volume of a cylinder, for example.
If the radius of a sphere is tripled what is going to happen to surface area?
If the radius of a sphere is tripled, the surface area increases by (3)2 = 9 times, and the volume increases by (3)3 = 27 times.
How many times does the volume of a sphere increase if the radius is tripled?
The new volume is 3^3 = 27 times as much.
What happens to the volume of a cylinder if the radius and height are tripled?
The original volume is multiplied by 27.
How many times does the volume of a Sphere increases if the radius is tripled?
The volume of the larger sphere will be 27 times the original. Here's the math: Volume of sphere of radius r is (4/3) x pi x r3 Volume of sphere of radius 3r is (4/3) x pi x (3r)3 or 27r3
What happens to the volume of a sphere if the radius doubles?
The volume becomes eight-fold.

What happens to the volume of a sphere when the radius triples?
The volume increases by a factor of (3)3 = 27 times.
What is the volume of a sphere when the radius is 3x3?
A sphere with a radius of 9 units has a volume of 3,053.63 units3
