To find the radius of a sphere, you need to use the formula for the volume of a sphere, which is:
V = (4/3) * π * r^3
Given that the volume of the sphere is 344/56 cm³, we can set up the equation as follows:
344/56 = (4/3) * π * r^3
To find the radius, we need to isolate it. First, let's simplify the equation:
344/56 = (4/3) * π * r^3
344/56 = (4/3) * 3.14159 * r^3
Now, let's solve for r^3:
r^3 = (344/56) / ((4/3) * 3.14159)
r^3 = (344/56) / (4/3) * (1/3.14159)
r^3 = (344/56) * (3/4) * (3.14159/1)
r^3 = (344 * 3 * 3.14159) / (56 * 4)
r^3 = (3064.60352) / (224)
r^3 ≈ 13.67
Now, let's find the cube root of both sides to find r:
r ≈ ∛13.67
r ≈ 2.35 cm (rounded to two decimal places)
Therefore, the radius of the sphere is approximately 2.35 cm.
