First, we need to find the least common denominator. The LCD for 7/8 and 1/3 would be 24. 7*3/8*3 = 21/24. 1*8/3*8 = 8/24. So, how many 8/24 will go into 21/24? 8 goes into 21 two times, and we are left with a remainder of 5. The answer is: Karen can make 2 and 1/24 servings of 1/3 cups of ice cream.
volume cylinder
=3.14×2^2×5
=62.8 cubic inches
volume sphere
=4/3×3.14×2^3
=33.49
difference between cylinder and sphere
=62.8-33.49
=29.31 cubic sphere
