Example
A sphere has a volume of 3052.08

cm3 . What is the Radius of the given sphere? (Use the

approximation 3.14)

Given: Volume of the sphere is 3052.08 cm

Equation Used:

4
V ( sphere)= r 3
3

Procedure:
Step 1: Set the two equations equal to each other.
3052.08

4
cm 3= r 3
3

Step 2: Solve for r.

cm 3=

3 (3052.08)

9156.24 cm

9156.24 cm 3

(Note: The above example has a given volume, use this as a guide on how to write your
solution.)

Your graph should look similar to this one except with different radius. Take notice that the
different views in this 3D figure might appear to be a different radius, but if you rotate your
image in all directions you will be able to see that the radius in fact is 9 all around.
