Answer:
C. 262 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
Use the formula for the volume of a sphere, V =
r³
Since the diameter is 10 cm, the radius will be 5 cm
Plug in the radius into the formula:
V =
[tex]\pi[/tex](5³)
V =
[tex]\pi[/tex](125)
V = 523.6
Since the bowl is a hemisphere, divide this by 2:
523.6/2
= 261.8
Rounding to the nearest cm, the volume of the bowl is 262 cubic cm.
So, the correct answer is C. 262 cm
