Answer:
12.86 cm³ of water is saved
Step-by-step explanation:
✔️Since width of new ice ball must be the same as the length of original cube, therefore, diameter of the ice ball = 3 cm
Radius of ice ball = ½(3) = 1.5 cm
Volume of the new sphere ice ball = ⁴/3πr³
Substitute
Volume of new sphere ice ball = ⁴/3 × π × 1.5³ = 14.14 cm³
✔️To find out how much water would be saved using the new sphere ice ball, let's find the volume of the cube then find the difference of both.
Volume of original ice cube with length 3 cm:
Volume of cube = s³
s = 3 cm
Volume of cube = 3³ = 27 cm³
Volume of water saved = 27 cm³ - 14.14 cm³
= 12.86 cm³
