    Let the radius of the hemisphere be x, the radius of the sphere is 1/3x

    the volume of the sphere will be:

    V=4/3πr³

    V=4/3*π * (1/3x) ³

    V=4/81πx³

    Volume of the hemisphere will ve:

    V=1/2*4/3πr³

    v=2/3*π*x³

    v=2/3πx³

    comparing the two volume by dividing the the volume of the hemisphere by that of the sphere we obtain:

    (2/3πx³) / (4/81πx³)

    =13.5

    this implies that the volume of the hemisphere is 13.5 times the volume of the sphere.
