A cylindrical container of five rubber balls has a height of 30 centimeters and a diameter of 6 centimeters. Each ball in the container has a radius of 3 centimeters. Find the amount of space in the container that is not occupied by rubber balls. Round your answer to the nearest whole number.

There is 170 cm³ free space in the container.

Step-by-step explanation:

Cylindrical container: height = 18 cm; diameter = 6 cm.

3 balls each have a radius of 3 cm.

Volume of a cylinder = π r² h

V = 3.14 * (3cm) ² * 18 cm

V = 508.68 cm³

Volume of rubber ball = 4/3 π r³

V = 4/3 * 3.14 * (3cm) ³

V = 113.04 cm³

113.04 cm³ * 3 balls = 339.12 cm³

508.68 cm³ - 339.12 cm³ = 169.56 cm³ or 170 cm³
