Let R be the radius of the resulting sphere.

It is known that the volume of solids remains the same in case of the conversion of solids from one shape into another.

∴Volume of three spheres = Volume of the resulting sphere

43π(3)3+43π(4)3+43π(5)3=43πR3

27+64+125=R3

R3=216

R=6 cm

Therefore, the radius of the resulting sphere will be 6 cm.
