Answer:
143π in³
Step-by-step explanation:
A basketball has the shape of a sphere
Volume of a basketball = 4/3πr³
Diameter = 9.5 in
Radius = diameter/2
= 9.5/2
= 4.75 in
Volume of a basketball = 4/3πr³
= 4/3 * π * 4.75³
= 4/3 * π * 107.17
= (4*π*107.17) / 3
= 428.68π / 3
= 142.89π in³
Approximately
143π in³ to the nearest whole number
