Answer:

7234.56.

Explanation:

Given:

Diameter = 24 inches

To find:

Volume of beach ball = ?

Solution:

First of all find radius, r = half of diameter

r =
$(24)/(2) = 12 \ inches$

By using formula,
$Volume \ of \ sphere = (4)/(3) \pi r^(3)$

$Volume\ of \ sphere = (4)/(3) \pi r^(3)$

=
$(4)/(3) *3.14*12*12*12\\(21703.68)/(3) = 7234.56$

Therefore, the correct value of the volume, in cubic inches, of the beach ball is 7234.56.
