Question

What is the approximate value of the soccer ball in cubic centimeters

Answer 1

The soccer ball is spherical in shape.

Therefore, the formula to calculate the volume (V) of a sphere is,

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

Given

`\begin{gathered} r=radius=11cm \\ \pi=3.14 \end{gathered}`

Therefore,

`V=(4)/(3)*3.14*11^3`

Simplify

`\begin{gathered} V=(4)/(3)*3.14*11^3=5572.45333\approx5572(nearest\text{ whole number)} \\ \therefore V=5572cm^3 \end{gathered}`

Hence, the correct option is Option 2.
