Question

5. What is the volume, in terms of pi, of a spherewhose diameter is 6 centimeters?

Answer 1

In order to calculate the volume of a sphere, we can use the formula:

$V=\frac{4}{3}\pi r^3$

Where r is the radius.

So, since the diameter is 6 units, the radius is 3 units, then the volume is:

$\begin{gathered} V=\frac{4}{3}\pi3^3 \\ V=36\pi \end{gathered}$

So the volume is 36π cm³.
