Answer

Let radius of hemisphere be r.

Total surface area of hemisphere = 3πr2

Total surface area of two hemisphere = 2 × 3πr2 = 6πr2.

Total surface area of sphere = 4πr2

Total surface area of two hemisphere : Total surface area of sphere = 6πr2 : 4πr2

= 6 : 4

= 3 : 2.

Hence, Option 2 is the correct option.
