Question 1117255: A sphere with diameter 1 unit is enclosed in a cube of side 1 unit each. Find the unoccupied volume remaining inside the cube.
a. ¼
b. 2π
c. π/6-1
d. 1-π/4
e. 1-π/6
What are the steps an processes I need to solve this problem because it has been alluding me? Can you please show me step-by-step. I am not a naturally strong person in math. I would really appreciate it!🤓🧐

================
Not alluding, eluding.
----------------------
Volume of the cube = L*W*H = 1
Volume of the sphere, r = 1/2 = 4%2Api%2Ar%5E3%2F3
Subtract the volume of the sphere from 1.

.
Unoccupied volume = volume of the cube with the edge of 1 unit long - (minus) volume of the sphere of the radius 1%2F2 = 


= 1^3 - %284%2F3%29%2Api%2A%281%2F2%29%5E3 = 1+-+%284%2F3%29%2Api%2A%281%2F8%29 = 1+-+pi%2F6.


Answer.  Unoccupied volume inside the cube is  1+-+pi%2F6 of cubic units.

Solved.
