Question

Drew needs to air up his teams 8 soccer balls. Each ball has a diameter of 70cm. In terms of pi, what is the total volume of air in all 8 soccer balls?

Answer 1

1.44m^3

Explanation:

Given data

Number of balls= 8

Diameter of ball = 70cm = 0.7m

Radius= 35cm= 0.35m

We know that a ball has a spherical shape

The volume of a sphere is

V= 4/3πr^3

substitute

V= 4/3*3.142*0.35^3

V= 0.18m^3

Hence if 1 ball has a volume of 0.18m^3

Then 8 balls will have a volume of

=0.18*8

=1.44m^3
