==============
For the spheres:
Vol+=+4pi%2Ar%5E3%2F3
= 32pi%2F3 cc
----
For the tub:
Vol+=+pi%2Ar%5E2%2Ah
= 1642.8%2Api cc
------------
--> ~ 154

find the volume of sphere with diameter of 4 cm (radius of 2 cm)
pi*r^3
find the volume of cylinder with diameter 14.8 cm (radius 7.4 cm)
pi*R^2*H
pi*7.4^2*30/pi*4^2=
7.4^2*30/16
7.4^2*15/8
205.35
