Question

A bottle of perfume is spherical with a diameter of 36 mm.
Calculate the capacity of the bottle, in mL.

Answer 1

24.4 mL

By converting mm to cm, we get

1 mm = 1/10 cm

18 mm = 18/10 cm

radius (r) = 1.8 cm

To find the volume,

Volume of sphere = 4/3πr3

= 4/3π(1.8)3

Volume = 24.4 cm3

To find the capacity,

1 cm3 = 1 mL

Capacity = 24.4 mL
