it would "A" because the radius of a tennis ball is 6.86cm, so when you divide 20.1 by 3 you gey 6.8 which is about right

Answer: b) divide the hight of the container by 6

Explanation:

dividing by 3 gets you the height of each tennis ball but to get the radius you'd divide by another 2...

The height / 6 = the radius of each tennis ball AKA the measurement for volume :)
