The volume of a sphere is given by the formula V = 4/3πr3, where r is the radius of the sphere. Which of the following gives the radius of the sphere in terms of the volume of the sphere?

Correct answer: D. 3√3V/4π

  • A. 4π/3V
  • B. 3V/4π
  • C. 3√4π/3V
  • D. 3√3V/4π

Explanation

Choice D is correct. Dividing both sides of the equation V = 4/3 πr3 by 4/3π results in 3V/4π = r3. Taking the cube root of both sides produces 3 √3V/4π = r. Therefore, 3 √3V/4π gives the radius of the sphere in terms of the volume of the sphere.
