You can put this solution on YOUR website!
The diameter of the ball can be only 20 in r=10\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Volume of sphere = (4/3) pi*r^3\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "=(4/3)*pi*10^3\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "=4188.80 in^3\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Volume of box = 20*30*40=24000\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "percent volume taken up = (4188.80/24000)*100\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "17.45%
