Given:
The radius of the fishing bobber = 0.5 inch.
To find:
The volume of the find bobber.
Solution:
We know that the shape of fishing bobber is a sphere.
The volume of a sphere is:
[tex]V=\dfrac{4}{3}\pi r^3[/tex]
Substitute r=0.5 and [tex]\pi=3.14[/tex] to find the volume of the fishing bobber.
[tex]V=\dfrac{4}{3}(3.14)(0.5)^3[/tex]
[tex]V=\dfrac{4}{3}(3.14)(0.125)[/tex]
[tex]V=0.52333...[/tex]
Approx the value to the nearest tenth.
[tex]V\approx 0.5[/tex]
Therefore, the volume of the fishing bobber is 0.5 cubic inches.
