The shape of the water is that of a "spherical cap." The formula for the volume of a spherical cap is ...
... V = π·h²·(r -h/3) . . . . . . . from web search
For a radius of 5 in, this is
... V = π·h²·(5 -h/3) . . . . in³
_____
For h=0
... V = π·0²·(5 -0/3) = 0
For h=5 in
... V = π·(5 in)²·((5 -5/3) in) = (2/3)π·5³ in³ . . . . . the volume of a hemisphere of radius 5
Answer:
I don't know if this helps, just a picture not a link
5/8=0.625
7/12=0.583......
5/8 is bigger as ive put both into a decimal as it is easier to tell
1: 14 ft
2: 18
3: 11; 28
4: 8; 96
5: a = 5x3
6: a = 8x8
7: 1x42, 2x21, 3x14, and 6x7. 6x7 probably makes the most sense.
