Hal says the volume of the sphere shown below is 36 cm³.Find the correct volume, using 3.14 for π. Round to the nearest hundredth. What was Hal's likely error? Use the drop-down menus to explain your answer.

Radius of the sphere = 3 cm

a) The volume of the sphere = 113cm³

b) Hal's likely error was :

He used the wrong formula and did not make use of π = 3.14 in his calculation.

Step-by-step explanation:

a) The Volume of a Sphere = 4/3πr³

The radius of the sphere = 3cm

π = 3.14

The volume of the sphere = 4/3 × 3.14 × 3³

= 113.04 cm³

Approximately to the nearest hundredth = 113cm³.

b) Hal's likely error comes in two forms:

1) He used the wrong formula which is Surface area of the sphere(4πr²) in his calculation instead of the right formula which was the Volume of a Sphere(4/3πr³)

ii) Also he did not use π in his calculation.

This means Hal's calculation=

Surface Area of a Sphere = 4πr²

But Hal's used = 4r²

Where r = 3cm = 4 × (3cm)²= 36 cm³

This is wrong.
