IM 8.5.20 Practice: The Volume of a Sphere

A cube’s volume is 512 cubic units. What is the length of its edge?

If a sphere fits snugly inside this cube, what is its volume?

What fraction of the cube is taken up by the sphere? What percentage is this? Explain your reasoning.

Sphere A has radius 2 cm. Sphere B has radius 4 cm.

Calculate the volume of each sphere.

The radius of Sphere B is double that of Sphere A. How many times greater is the volume of B?

Three cones have a volume of cm³. Cone A has a radius of 2 cm. Cone B has a radius of 3 cm. Cone C has a radius of 4 cm. Find the height of each cone.
