the volume (V) of a sphere is calculated using the formula
V = πr³
change the subject and express in terms of r
multiply both sides by 3
3V = 4πr³ ( divide both sides by 4π )
r³ = 3V / 4π ( take the cube root of both sides )
r = ∛( 3V /4π )
sphere A with V= 40
r = ∛ (120 / 12.56 ) = 2.122
sphere B with V = 10
r = ∛(30 / 12.56 ) = 1.337
sphere A - sphere B = 2.122 - 1.337 = 0.8 inches ( to nearest tenth )
