Question

What is the volume of a sphere with a diameter of 8 meters? Use 3.14 for pi. Round your answer to the nearest hundredth. (4 points)

A.33.59 m3

B.113.10 m3

C.267.95 m3

D.2144.66 m3

Answer 1

The answer is C. 267.95 m3

Answer 2

Formula for the Volume of a Sphere is *4/3 x pi x Radius^3*
The problem gives you the diameter, but we need the radius (half of the diameter) Which would make it 4 meters. Our formula would now be 4/3 x pi(3.14) x 4^3 (4x4x4) which is 267.946 which rounds up to *267.95m^3* So the correct answer is C
