So Volume (V) of a sphere is:
V =  \frac{4}{3} \pi {r}^{3}
so essentially we need to divide the machine's Volume (V) the gumball volume (v)
V =  \frac{4}{3} \pi {r}^{3}  = \frac{4}{3} \pi {(6)}^{3}  \\ V =  \frac{4}{3}(216) \pi  = 288\pi
v =  \frac{4}{3} \pi {( \frac{1}{3} )}^{3}  =  \frac{4}{3} \times  \frac{1}{27}  \pi  \\ v =  \frac{4}{81} \pi
now we divide V by v:
V/v =  \frac{288\pi}{ \frac{4\pi}{81} }  =  \frac{288}{1}  \times  \frac{81}{4}  = 5832
so b) 5,832 gumballs can fit in the machine

The probability of picking two black marbles from a box at random without replacement is 10/91 .
sasho [114]
The probability of the 2 events are multiplied to get the result 10/91

so we have the relation 5/14 *  x  = 10/91

where x is the probability of drawing the second black

so x =  10/91 * 14/5 =  4/13   answer
