Question

A sphere has a radius of 3 centimeters what is the volume of the sphere ????

Answer 1

A 36
`\pi`
`cm^(3)`

Explanation:

The formula for the volume of a sphere is
`(4)/(3)\pi r^(3)`. Because we are given the radius, 3 (centimeters), of the sphere, all we would need to do is plug 3 in for
`r`, and solve.

`(4)/(3)\pi (3)^(3)`

Using the order of operations (Parentheses, Exponents), we can solve for
`(3)^(3)`, which is 27 (think 3*3*3).

Then, we simply Multiply
`((4)/(3))(\pi)(27)`, to get
`36\pi`.

With our unit, centimeters cubed (
`cm^(3)`), our sphere's volume is 36
`\pi`
`cm^(3)`.
