Question 1077118
A candy spherical egg is 6 inches in diameter. The shell is uniformly 1/4 inch thick. The rest of the interior of the egg is empty. How many cubic inches of candy is in the egg? 
----
V = (4/3)pi*r^3
-----
diameter = 6 - 2(1/4) = 5.5 "
radius = 5.5/2 = 2.75
------
Ans: Candy = (4/3)pi*2.75^3 = 27.73pi cu in = 87.11 in^3
