The formula for the volume of a sphere is V = (4/3)πr^3, where r is the radius of the sphere. Since the diameter is given, we need to first find the radius.
Radius = Diameter / 2
Radius = 43.5 cm / 2
Radius = 21.75 cm
Now we can plug the radius into the formula:
V = (4/3)π(21.75)^3
V = (4/3)π(10,648.73)
V = 44,781.31 cubic centimeters
Rounded to the nearest tenth, the volume of the sphere is 44,781.3 cubic centimeters.
What is the volume of a sphere with a diameter of 43.5 cm, rounded to the nearest tenth of a cubic centimeter?
