Question

(Sphere has a volume of 40 cubic meters and is reduced by a scale factor

one-fourth. What is the volume of the smaller sphere?

Answer 1

Answer:
`10\ m^3`

Explanation:

Given

The volume of Sphere is
`40\ m^3`

It is reduced by a scale factor of one-fourth i.e. Volume is reduced to one-fourth of the original volume

The new volume is given by

`\Rightarrow V_(new)=(V)/(4)=(40)/(4)\\\\\Rightarrow V_(new)=10\ m^3`
