### ⚡ 10-Second Exam Shortcut Trick
⚡ 10-Second Exam Shortcut: Eliminate options ending in incorrect units or calculate unit digits first before solving full arithmetic.
### 📝 Step-by-Step Derivation
1. Cylinder radius R, height H = 12R, so volume = πR²H = 12πR³; each small sphere has radius R/3, volume = (4/3)π(R/3)³ = 4πR³/81.
2. Number of spheres = 12πR³ ÷ (4πR³/81) = 12 × 81/4 = 243.
3. The official Ans column ticks option 1, matching this check.
### ⚠️ Common Trap to Avoid
⚠️ Common Trap: Misreading inverse proportions or rushing calculation in the last algebraic step.

### 💡 Exam Tip
💡 Exam Tip: Always verify if question asks for perimeter, area, or remaining fraction.
