Q. What is the volume of a sphere with a radius of 25.6cm, rounded to the nearest tenth of a cubic centimeter?Answer: cm3
Volume Formula: To find the volume of a sphere, we use the formula V=34πr3, where V is the volume and r is the radius of the sphere.
Cube Radius: First, we need to cube the radius. The radius is 25.6cm, so we calculate 25.63.25.63=25.6×25.6×25.6≈16777.216cm3
Multiply by Pi: Next, we multiply the cubed radius by π (pi). We will use the approximation π≈3.14159 for this calculation.16777.216×π≈16777.216×3.14159≈52704.768cm3
Multiply by 4/3: Finally, we multiply this result by 34 to find the volume of the sphere.(34)×52704.768≈70272.92267cm3
Round to Nearest Tenth: Now we round the result to the nearest tenth of a cubic centimeter.70272.92267cm3 rounded to the nearest tenth is 70272.9cm3.
