Question 627775
A cube and a sphere each encloses 1000cm cubed. Which shape is taller, and by how much? 

What formula needs to be used in this problem? B(h)=1000cm cubed. To find the Base of the sphere B=pie(radius)squared. But the only value given is the volume. How to solve?
--------------
There's no base of a sphere.
For a sphere:
{{{Vol = 4pi*r^3/3}}}
{{{1000 = 4pi*r^3/3}}}
{{{r^3 = 3000/(4pi)}}}
r =~ 6.2 cm
-----
For a cube:
{{{Vol = s^3}}}
s = 10 cm
