You can put this solution on YOUR website! How many spherical fishing sinkers with diameter 1 cm could be made by melting a rectangular block of lead 20 cm by 5 cm by 6cm and casting the molten product?
-------------
The volume of the block is the product of its dimensions.
20*5*6 = 600 cc
---------------
For a sphere:
r = 0.5 cm
Vol of each sphere = cc
# of spheres = 600/(pi/6) = 3600/pi
