A spherical storage tank has a diameter of 48 ft and is full of water. How many delivery trucks with
cylindrical tanks measuring 8 ft in diameter and 10 ft long can be completely filled from the storage
tank?

• Geometry -

volume of a sphere = (4/3)pi(r^3)
we know that r = 24

volume of cylinder = pi(r^2(h)
we know r = 4, h = 10

then divide volume of sphere by volume of cylinder

• Geometry -

48
