Question

The main tank has a radius of 60 feet. What is the volume of the quarter-sphered sized tank? Round your answer to the nearest whole number. You must explain your answer using words, and you must show all work and calculations to receive credit.

Answer 1

If the main tank is spherical, then its volume is $\dfrac43\pi\times60^3=288000\pi$. A quarter-sphere would be one fourth of this volume, or $72000\pi$.
