Question

I don't understand this question. Could anyone excplain to me what it wants me to do and what the answer is?

Answer 1

The answer is 18.2
I got the answer by solving it

Answer 2

1st you need equation for the surface area of a sphere which is:
A=4*π*r^2
Where r=radius
r = diameter/2 or d/2

So
area of a sphere = 4*π*(d/2)^2

Plug in the area given
1041 = 4*π*(d/2)^2

Solve for d
1041/(4* π)=82.84

82.84 = (d/2)^2

Sqrt(82.84)=d/2

9.10=d/2

9.10*2= d

18.2=d
So the answer is 18.2 in
