The can that holds the balls is a cylinder with the diameter equal to the diameter of the ball and the height equal to 3 diameters.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Find the diameter of the ball.
\n" ); document.write( "\"V%5Bb%5D=%284%2F3%29pi%28D%2F2%29%5E3\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"36pi=%28pi%2F6%29D%5E3\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"D%5E3=216\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"D=6\"\"cm\"
\n" ); document.write( "So then the volume of the cylinder is,
\n" ); document.write( "\"V%5Bc%5D=pi%286%2F2%29%5E2%283%286%29%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"V%5Bc%5D=162pi\"
\n" ); document.write( "So then the empty space is,
\n" ); document.write( "\"V%5BES%5D=V%5Bc%5D-3B%5Bv%5D\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"V%5BES%5D=162pi-3%2836pi%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"V%5BES%5D=162pi-108pi\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"highlight%28V%5BES%5D=54pi%29\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "
