The approximate volume of the sphere is 904.779 . Which you could round to 905 if need be.

Alright, lets get started.

The diameter of sphere is given as = 12 cm

We could find the radius by making diameter half.

So, radius of sphere will be =
(12)/(2) = 6 cm

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

Plugging the value of r in above formula,

volume V =
(4)/(3) \pi *6^3

volume V =
(4)/(3) \pi * 216

volume V =
(2714.3360)/(3)

volume V = 904.78 cubic cms : Answer

Hope it will help :)
