Answer 1

7234.56

Explanation:

Using 3.14 as pi the answer is

Answer 2

To find the volume of the lollipops, you would use the formula for finding the volume of a sphere:

V = 4/3 x pi x r^3

Then, substitute what you know and simplify the equation to find your answer.

V = 4/3 x pi x 12^3
V = 4/3 x pi x 1728
V = 2304 x pi cubic mm
