Question 5 • Pre-Algebra - MA3119 B-CR

Which sphere has a volume of approximately 113.1 cubic inches?

Answer
A
Glass ball: r = 3 inches
B
Soccer ball: r = 4 inches
C
Lamp: d = 10 inches

Explanation

Use the sphere volume formula, V = (4/3)πr³. For the glass ball, r = 3 inches, so V = (4/3)π(3³) = 36π ≈ 113.1 cubic inches. The lamp has radius 5 inches because its diameter is 10 inches, and the soccer ball’s radius is 4 inches, so neither has the requested volume.
