Answer:

32,708.3 cu. ft

Explanation:

First we find the volume of a sphere with the same dimensions

is the formula for the volume of a sphere

substitute the radius with 25 because radius is half the diameter and use 3.14 for pie. The answer to that formula is 65,416.6

Since you're finding the volume of a hemisphere, divide the volume of the sphere in half

65,416.6/2= 32,708.3
