In order to determine the volume of the given ball, use the following formula:


V=(4)/(3)\pi r^3

where

r: radius = diameter/2 = 6 in/2 = 3 in

replace the previous values of the parameter into the formula for V:


\begin{gathered} V=(4)/(3)\pi(3)^3 \\ V=36\pi \end{gathered}

Hence, the volume of the given ball is 36π in^3
