Answer: 11,488.2133 cubic feet approximately
Work Shown:
d = diameter = 28
r = radius = d/2 = 28/2 = 14
V = volume of a sphere
V = (4/3)*pi*r^3
V = (4/3)*3.14*(14)^3
V = 11,488.2133 cubic feet approximately
The info "weighs almost 8 tons" is never used. It is likely an intended distraction. All we need is the radius of the sphere to get its volume.
