You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Radius = diameter/2 = 28/2 = 14
\n" ); document.write( "Volume of the sphere:
\n" ); document.write( "4/3(Pi*r^3) = Volume
\n" ); document.write( "4/3(Pi*14^3) = 11,494 This is how much material you have to form cones
\n" ); document.write( "-------------------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "Volume of a cone:
\n" ); document.write( "1/3(B*h) B: base and h: height. Since the base is Pi*r^2, we can re-write:
\n" ); document.write( "1/3((Pi*r^2)h)
\n" ); document.write( "1/3((Pi*14^2)3) = 615.75
\n" ); document.write( "---------------------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "11,494/615.75 = 18.667
\n" ); document.write( "You can make 18 cones and have some left over, 0.667 which is enough for 2/3 of a cone.
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
