$20.2units^3$ to the nearest one decimal place

Volume of hemisphere $=(pih^2)/3(3r-h)$

Caps diameter $=2$ $:.r=1$

Volume of square prism $=w*b*h$

$:.=(pi2^2)/3(3(1)-2)+2*2*4$

$:.=(pi2^2)/3(3(1)-2)+16$

$:.=(4pi)/3*1+16$

$:.=(4pi)/3+16$

$:.=12.56637061/3+16$

$:.=4.188790205+16$

$:.=20.188790205$

$:.=20.2units^3$ to the nearest one decimal place.
