Answer:
V = 18816.57 in^3
Step-by-step explanation:
So we need to find the volume of the inner sphere. Try to picture the coconut as a circle with another circle inside of it. We know that the bigger circle is 55 inches wide, and the distance between the circumferences of the circles is 11 inches. that means the inner circle is 55 - 2(11) inches wide. This is because we have 11 inches of coconut meat on either side of the inner circle.
55 - 2(11) = 33 inches
The radius is half of the diameter, so r = 16.5 inches.
Now just use the formaula V =
V = (4/3) * 3.14 * (16.5)^3
V = 18816.57 in^3
<em>Also, just a side note.. this is one big coconut..</em>
