Which shape has a greater internal volume, a cube with side length of 5" or a sphere with a diameter of 5"?
Added by Marshall H.
Step 1
The formula for the volume of a cube is \(V_{cube} = a^3\), where \(a\) is the length of a side of the cube. Given that the side length of the cube is 5 inches, we substitute \(a = 5\) inches into the formula. Show more…
