Question

A baseball has a 15 cm diameter what is the voulme of the contents of the ball

Answer 1

Answer:

The answer is 1767.15cm^3

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for finding the volume of a spherical object is 4/3(π)(r^3),where r is the radius of the object. But here only the diameter was given. And diameter=2(r), where r is radius.

So to find the radius, divide the diameter by 2. Since by making r the subject of the equation you get r=diameter/2.

Using the formula

4/3(π)(r^3)=(4π((15/2)^3))/3

=(4π(7.5^3)/3

=(4π(421.875))/3

Since π is 3.141592654

(4π(421.875))/3=1/3(4(3.141592654)(421.875))

=1/3(5301.437603)

=1767.145868

But I rounded off the answer to 2 decimal places and so I got 1767.14
