Q:

James has an ice cube tray that makes ice in the shape of spheres rather than cubes. Each sphere of ice has a radius of 222 cm. One tray makes 666 spheres. What is the total volume of ice the tray can make at one time?

Accepted Solution

A:
To find the volume of all 6 ice cubes, you will find the volume of one ice cube by using the formula for the volume of a sphere.

V = 4/3 x pi x r^3
      4/3 x 3.14 x 2^3
V = 33.49 cubic cm

33.49 cm^3 x 6 = 200.94 cubic cm

The volume of all 6 ice cubes is approximately 200.96 cubic centimeters.
