The volume of a sphere is given by the equation
V=(4)/(3) \pi r^(3), where V is the volume and r is the radius.


To answer this question, simply plug the correct values into the equation:


V=(4)/(3) \pi 3^(3) \\V=4.1888(27)\\V=113.0976


The volume of the air in the balloon is about 113.0976 in3.


Hope this helps!!
