Answer:

The volume = 2143.573 cubic inches

Explanation:

∵ The volume of the sphere =
(4)/(3)\pi r^(3)

∵ The diameter of the sphere is 16 inches

∴ Its radius = 16 ÷ 2 = 8 inches

∵ The fishbowl is filled

∴ The volume of the water = the volume of the fishbowl

∴ The volume of the water =
(4)/(3)\pi(8^(3))=2143.573 cubic inches
