351. Three solid spheres of iron whose diameters are 2 cm, 12 cm and 16 cm respectively are melted into a single solid sphere. Find the radius of the solid sphere. 


Let the radius of the solid sphere be R cm.
Then, according to the question,

4 over 5 πR cubed equals 4 over 3 straight pi open parentheses 2 over 2 close parentheses cubed plus 4 over 3 straight pi open parentheses 12 over 2 close parentheses cubed plus 4 over 3 straight pi open parentheses 16 over 2 close parentheses cubed
