PLEASE HELP FAST!

A can of spaghetti has a diameter of 12 cm and a height of 16 cm. The can contains spherical meatballs, each with a radius of 3 cm, that take up 25% of the volume.



How many meatballs are in the can?

Use 3.14 to approximate pi and express your answer as a whole number.

Answer 1

Raduis of Can=1/2 of 12cm

R=6cm

Volume of Can= pi r ^{2} h

= pi 6 ^{2} 16

=1809.5573cm3

Volume of Meatball=4/3 pi r ^{3}

=4/3 pi 3 ^{3}

=113.09734

25% of can =

1809.5573/4

=452.389325

Meatballs in area = 25%of can/volume of meatballs

=452.389325/113.09734

=4 meatballs
