Question

A globe company currently manufactures a globe that is 16 inches in diameter. If the dimensions of the globe were reduced by half, what would its volume be? Use 3.14 for π and round your answer to the nearest tenth. A. 682.7 in3 B. 2143.6 in3 C. 85.3 in3 D. 267.9 in3

Answer 1

Answer:

D. 267.9 in3

Step-by-step explanation:

So we know the diameter is 16 inches.

So we need to find the radius and we do that by: 16/2 = 8 then it is reduced by half: 8/2 = 4

Now we need to find the volume.

V= 4/3 times 3.14 times 4^3= 268.08

So we would need to round which would give us 267.9 in3.

Therefore the answer is the D. 267.9 in3.

I hope this helps!!!
