A bouncy ball has a diameter of 6 inches. What is the volume of the bouncy ball in cubic units? Assume that pi = 3.14 and round to the nearest tenth when necessary.

Given Data:

The diameter of the ball is, d = 6 in.

Therefore, the radius is, r = 3 in

Assuming the ball to be a sphere, the expression for calculating the volume is given by,


V=(4)/(3)\pi* r^3^{}

Substituting the values, we have,


V=(4)/(3)*3.14*(3in)^3=113.04in^3

Thus, the volume is 113.04 in3.
