Question

When given the diameter of a sphere, how can the volume be calculated? Describe the steps needed to find the volume.

Answer 1

First divide diameter in half to get radius, then use the Sphere Volume formula(V=$\frac{4}{3}$$\pi$$r^{3}$) to get the volume of the sphere.

Answer 2

Sample Response: When given the diameter, divide it in half to find the radius measure. Then, substitute the radius measure into the formula. Cube the radius and multiply by 4/3. Write the result followed by pi and the label for the units.
