A hemisphere is 1/2 a sphere.
\n" ); document.write( "The formula for the volume of a sphere is 4/3 pi r^3
\n" ); document.write( "The conversion between cubic cm and liters is 1 cm = .001 liters
\n" ); document.write( "...
\n" ); document.write( "Given: r = 15 cm
\n" ); document.write( "...
\n" ); document.write( "Calculate the volume of the sphere:
\n" ); document.write( "4/3 (pi) (15^3)
\n" ); document.write( "~14,137 cu cm
\n" ); document.write( "...
\n" ); document.write( "convert to liters:
\n" ); document.write( "14,137 cu cm * .001 liters/cu cm
\n" ); document.write( "~14.14 liters
\n" ); document.write( "...
\n" ); document.write( "Divide by 2 to derive the volume of the hemisphere:
\n" ); document.write( "~14.14/2
\n" ); document.write( "...
\n" ); document.write( "~7.07 liters is the answer to the question
