Answer 1

Total volume of 80 balls = 2,263.2 inch³

Explanation:

Given:

Diameter of lead ball = 6 inch

Number of ball need = 80

Find:

Total volume of 80 balls

Computation:

Radius of lead ball = Diameter / 2

Radius of lead ball = 6 / 2

Radius of lead ball = 3 inch

Volume of lead ball = πr²

Volume of lead ball = (22/7)(3)²

Volume of lead ball = (22/7)(9)

Volume of lead ball = 28.29 inch³ (Approx.)

Total volume of 80 balls = 80 x Volume of lead ball

Total volume of 80 balls = 80 x 28.29

Total volume of 80 balls = 2,263.2 inch³
