Answer:
$972\pi\ in.^3$

Explanation:

From the given picture, it can be seen that the diameter of the sphere = 18 inches

Then, the radius of the sphere =
$(18)/(2)=9\ in.$

The volume of the sphere is given by :-

$\text{Volume}=(4)/(3)\pi r^3\\\\\Rightarrow\text{Volume}=(4)/(3)\pi (9)^3\\\\\Rightarrow\text{Volume}=972\pi\ in.^3$
