How do you round a number to the nearest tenth?

Back

To round to the nearest tenth, look at the hundredths place. If it's 5 or more, round up; if it's less than 5, round down.

If a sphere has a volume of 904.3 cm³, what is its radius?

Back

Using the formula V = (4/3)πr³, rearranging gives r = ((3V)/(4π))^(1/3). For V = 904.3 cm³, r ≈ 6.2 cm.

How does changing the radius affect the volume of a sphere?

Back

The volume increases with the cube of the radius. Doubling the radius increases the volume by a factor of 8.
