The volume is =1145.6 u^3=1145.6u3

Explanation:

Volume of ellipsoid is =4/3piabc=43πabc

Volume of henisphere is =2/3pir^3=23πr3

Remaining volume =4/3piabc-2/3pir^3=43πabc23πr3

=2/3pi(2abc-r^3)=23π(2abcr3)

=2/3pi(2*8*7*6-5^3)=23π(287653)

=2/3pi(672-125)=23π(672125)

=2/3pi*547=23π547

=1145.6=1145.6
