Okay! Now, we know that by melting and recasting, the volume will remain constant or same.
So, the volume of sphere divided by volume of cylinder will amount to the number of spheres made.
While doing the division, cut the pi's. Then, it would look like this:-
4*3*3/4*4.5
= 4*9/4*4.5
As 4 is common in both the numerator and denominator and we are multiplying in both numerator and denominator, we can cut out 4 as well. Then,
9/4.5 = No. of spheres made
= 2
