We are given the  volume of a spherical tank =  790.272 π cubic feet.

We need to find the diameter of the container .

We know formula for volume of a sphere.

[tex]V=\frac{3}{4}(r^{3}\pi)[/tex]

Where r is the radius.

Plugging V= 790.272 π  in the above formula, we get

[tex]790.272\pi =\frac{3}{4}(r^{3}\pi)[/tex]

Dividing both sides by π, we get

790.272 =[tex]\frac{4}{3}(r^{3})[/tex]

Multiplying both sides by 3, we get

2370.816 = [tex]4r^3[/tex]

Dividing both sides by 4, we get

592.704 = [tex]r^3[/tex]

Taking cube root on both sides, we get

r=8.4.

Diamater is 2 times of radius, that is 2 × 8.4 = 16.8

Therefore, the diameter of the container = 16.8 feet.
