Question

The diameter of a ball is 6 inches. What is the volume of the ball?

Answer 1

In order to determine the volume of the given ball, use the following formula:

`V=(4)/(3)\pi r^3`

where

r: radius = diameter/2 = 6 in/2 = 3 in

replace the previous values of the parameter into the formula for V:

`\begin{gathered} V=(4)/(3)\pi(3)^3 \\ V=36\pi \end{gathered}`

Hence, the volume of the given ball is 36π in^3
