: Can you please help? Find the volume of a seedless orange with a radius 5cm. When v= 4 pie r3/3 (that's 4pieRcubed sorry I don't know how to type how it is in the book. This is what I came up with
4(3.14)(97.34)/3 = 407.53 I don't know if it is correct and am stuck with the other questions. Thanks so much...!!!

(b) suppose the peel of the orange is 0.5cm thick. What volume of the orange is edible?
(c) Express the edible part of the orange as a percent of the whole orange. This question is from textbook algebra 1

pi is a Greek letter, not the pizza kind

your equation looks ok, but 5� is 125 not 97.34 ... answer should be 523.6cm�

for b., if the peel is 0.5cm then the edible radius is 4.5cm ... using same equation gives 381.7cm�

for c., 381.7/523.6=0.729 ... 72.9%
