The volume of a sphere can be calculated using the formula:

V = (4/3) * π * r^3

where V represents the volume and r represents the radius of the sphere.

In this case, the diameter of the sphere is given as 6 cm. The radius (r) can be determined by dividing the diameter by 2:

r = diameter / 2 = 6 cm / 2 = 3 cm

Now we can substitute the value of the radius into the volume formula:

V = (4/3) * π * (3 cm)^3

≈ (4/3) * 3.14159 * 27 cm^3

≈ 113.097 cm^3

Therefore, the volume of the sphere is approximately 113.097 cubic centimeters.
