You can put this solution on YOUR website!
you calculate the volume of a sphere using the formula
V+=+%284%2F3%29r%5E3%2Api
if given V+=+1000cm%5E3, we have
1000cm%5E3+=+%284%2F3%29r%5E3%2Api...solve for r
%283%2A1000cm%5E3%29+=+4r%5E3%2Api
%283000%2F%284pi%29%29cm%5E3+=+r%5E3
r%5E3=%28750%2Fpi+%29cm%5E3
r%5E3=238.73cm%5E3+
r=root%283%2C238.73cm%5E3%29+
r≈6.2cm+
