@yummydum @mathteacher1729 can you guys help me figure this one out?

Answer 2

You need to use the volume formula for a sphere. Well, you need to use ONE HALF the volume formula of a sphere. :)

what's that formula again?

@tornjeansxo

If you ever need a math formula go to http://www.google.com and type in what you're looking for. :-p

"Volume of a Sphere" -- 2nd result is quite nice. (Wikipedia results tend to give TOO MUCh info and end up being confusing, so try to avoid them as your first resource).

Answer 5

okay. 4/3 π r3

Answer 6

π = 22/7
