Question

If the volume of a full sphere is 4/3x πr^3 what is the volume of a half sphere, also called a hemisphere?

Answer 1

V = (2 / 3) π r3.

Explanation:

1/2 x 4/3 x π r3 = 2/3π r3

Answer 2

Rebekah, the height of a hemisphere is its radius. The volume of a sphere is 4/3 π r3. So the volume of a hemisphere is half of that: V = (2 / 3) π r3.
