Do you share your toys with your friends?
Read and analyze the word problem below.

Victor and Carol are best friends. They share their

toys with each other.
One day, they were playing at the seashore. They cut
a ball carefully in half and filled both halves with sand.
Then, they poured the sand to a cylinder with the same
diameter and height as the ball. They discovered that the
2
sand filled of the cylinder. What is the volume of the
3
canva.com sphere if the radius of the cylinder and sphere is 50 cm?

• Who are the best friends in our word problem?

• What did they do in the seashore?
• How did they show love for each other?
• Have you tried sharing your toys with your friends? How did
you feel?
• Do you think sharing is good? Why?

What Is It
• What are the solid figures used by Victor and Carol?
• How were the two solid figures described in terms of their
dimensions?
• How much sand in the sphere used to fill the cylinder?
• What did they discover upon filling up the cylinder with the sand
from the sphere?
• How do we solve for the amount of sand used to fill the cylinder?
Let us analyze the problem and visualize what the two children did.
Understand
• What is asked?  the volume of a sphere
• What facts are given?  radius – 50 cm
Plan
• What operation shall we use in  multiplication and division
solving the problem?
• Derive the formula in finding
the volume of a sphere.
A sphere is a geometrical solid
with all its points at the same
distance from the center.

3
To find the volume of the sphere we need r = 50 cm

to use a cylinder of the same radius and

h=100 cm
height as the sphere.

Cut the sphere into halves. Fill in

both halves with sand.

Fill the cylinder with sand from the

two halves of the sphere.
2
The volume of a sphere is of the
3
volume of the cylinder. The height of
the cylinder is the same as the length
of the diameter of the sphere, which
we assign as 2r (diameter = 2 x radius).

The formula of the volume of sphere is

2
V sphere = (πr2 x 2r)
3
= (2 x 2) (πr2 x r)
3
4
V = 3 πr3
• Number Sentence 4
V sphere = πr3
3
4
V= (3.14 x 50 x 50 x 50)

= 1,570,000 cm3
3
� cm3
= 523, 333.3𝟑𝟑

The volume of the sphere is 523, 333.33 cm3.

Let us have another example.

How many cubic centimeters of air would be needed to completely fill in the ball
with a radius of 8 cm?
To solve for the volume of the ball:
4
V= πr3
3
4
= 3.14 x (8cm)3
3
4
= 3.14 x 512 cm3

4
= x 1,607.68 cm3
3
= 2,143.57 cm3
So, the ball will be completely filled with 2,143.57 cm3 of air inside.
