5,082 balls  golf balls would fit in a 55 gallon drum.  

<u>Solution:</u>

Given,  

Radius of a golf ball = 0.840 inches

\text {Volume of the golf ball}=\frac{4}{3} \times 3.14 \times r^{3} [Pi = 3.14]

\rightarrow \frac{4}{3} \times 3.14 \times(0.840)^{3}=2.5 \text { inches }^{3} \\\\ \text { Volume of the gallon }=\text { number of gallons } \times \text { value of one gallon }

\rightarrow 55 \times 231 \text { cubic inches }=12705 \text { cubic inches }

\text { Number of balls fit }=\frac{\text { volume of the gallon }}{\text { volume of the golf ball }}

\rightarrow \frac{12705}{2.5}=5,082
