Step-by-step explanation

The question wants us to get the volume of the figure

The figure given is a sphere

The volume of a sphere is given by


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

where


r=radius=9cm

So that if we substitute r =9cm into the formula


\begin{gathered} V=(4)/(3)*\pi*9^3 \\ \\ V=(4)/(3)*\pi*9cm*9cm*9cm \end{gathered}

Simplifying further, we will have


V=3053.63cm^3

Thus, the volume of the sphere is about 3053.63cm³
