Answer:
Exact answer = 10.41666666666666666666666666666pi
Estimated answer = 32.70938
Step-by-step explanation:
Semi circle formula: 1/2 * 4/3 * pi * r^3
r = 2.5
1/2 * 4/3 * pi * 2.5^3
2/3 * pi * 2.5^3
2/3 * pi * 15.625
10.416..... * pi
Exact answer = 10.417pi
We can estimate pi as 3.14
So, 10.417 * 3.14 = 32.70938
Exact answer = 10.41666666666666666666666666666pi
Estimated answer = 32.70938
So if the bag contains half as many red marbles as blue ones, and there are 8 reds then there are 16 blues. 16 + 8= 24 if you want there to be 1/4 white marbles add 6. 6/30 is 1/4.
So the answer comes out to be 30 marbles in the bag
