Question

A sports ball has a diameter of 27 cm. Find the volume of the ball. cm.3 Round your answer to the nearest tenth if necessary

Answer 1

The volume of a sphere is (4/3)(Pi)(r^3)

If the ball has a diameter of 27 cm, the radius would be 27/2 = 13.5 cm

Unsing the formula:

V = (4/3)(3.1416)(13.5)^3 = (4/3)(3.1416)(2460.375) = 10306.0188

Answer: Volume is 10,306.0188 cm^3
