Question

A solid plastic ball is a sphere with a radius of 8 inches. How much plastic does it take to make one ball

Answer 1

2144.66in³

Explanation:

Radius = 8 inches.

To determine the amount of sphere to make the ball, we'll have to find its volume.

Volume of a sphere = 4/3 * Πr³

V = 4/3*Πr³

Π = 22/7

V = 4/3 * 22/7 * 8³

V = 2144.66inches³

V = 2144.66in³

The amount of plastic required is 2144.66in³.
