Question

There are 10 golf balls in a rectangular prism. Each golf ball has a diameter of 1.25 inches. Find the volume of the golf balls inside the prism.


A) 1.02in
B) 14.13in
C) 141.37in
D) 10.22in

Answer 1

The answer is D.

The formula for the volume of a sphere is $\frac{4}{3} \pi r^{3}$ 

You would divide the diameter in half which would give you your radius (r).
Then you plug in the radius value to find the volume of ONE ball.
You would then multiply by 10 to find the volume of TEN golf balls.

D is the closest answer to the volume of ten golf balls
