The Earth's radius = 6370 km.A

The radius of the core = 3470 km.A

Volume of Earth = 4/3(pi)63703

= 1,082,696,932,430 km3

Volume of core = 4/3(pi)34703

= 175,015,709,799 km3

Core volume as percentage of Earth's total volume =

(Core volume / Total volume) x 100

Percentage of Earth's volume composed of core = 16 %
