The main tank has a radius of 70 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.
The formula for the volume of a quarter-sphere is simply one-fourth of the volume of the sphere. So the volume of a quarter-sphere: V = (1/4) (4/3) (π r³) or V = (1/3) (π r³)
Since we are given with the radius of 70 feet, the volume is V = (1/3) (π) (70³) V = 359,189 cubic feet
