if you had a radius of 2.5 and the second radius of the same shape is twice that which is 5 right what would the third radius be
The sphere below has a radius of 2.5 inches and an approximate volume of 65.42 cubic inches A second sphere has twice the radius of the given sphere. A third sphere has a diameter that is three-fourths of the diameter of the given sphere
@Hero
@Mehek14
first find the diameter of the original sphere
2.5*2
ok how do I do that
2.5 + 2.5
diameter = radius x 2
ok so I got that so wouldn't it be 3*2.5
2 * 2.5
ok I got that but for the third one wouldn't it be 3*2.5
the diameter of the first one is 5 the diameter of the third sphere is 3/4 the diameter of the first one
your question states: The sphere below has a radius of 2.5 inches and an approximate volume of 65.42 cubic inches A second sphere has twice the radius of the given sphere. A third sphere has a diameter that is three-fourths of the diameter of the given sphere
A third sphere has a diameter that is three-fourths of the diameter of the given sphere
the diameter of the given is 5 so multiply 5*0.75 = 3.75
to find the radius, divide the diameter by 2 3.75/2
k thanks
so what's the radius of the third sphere?
1.875
correct that's your answer
thanks
