    The solution would be like this for this specific problem:729 = 4*pi * r^3/3 Multiply both sides by 3 2185 = 4*pi*r3 Divide both sides by 4 pi. 173.9649681528662 = r3

    r = 5.58239548 A = 4 pi r^2 A = 4 * 3.14 * 5.582395482A = 391.7 square inches The surface area of the sphere to the nearest tenth of an inch is 391.7 square inches.
