Answer:
Volume of air = 4πr³ (units cubed)
Explanation:

Model the squash ball as a sphere.
Assuming the six squash balls are packaged in a cylindrical container where each ball is one on top of the other, the height of the container is 6 times the height of a squash ball.
The height of a squash ball is its diameter, which is twice its radius.
Therefore, the height of the cylinder is 12 times the radius of the squash ball, and the radius of the cylinder is the radius of the squash ball.
Therefore:

where r is the radius of the sphere (squash ball).
To find the volume of air inside the container, subtract 6 times the volume of a sphere from the volume of the cylinder.
