Remember that the volume of the sphere is given by the following equation:


V\text{ }=\text{ }(4)/(3)\pi r^3^{}

In this case, we have that the volume of the sphere would be:


V\text{ }=\text{ }(4)/(3)\pi r^3\text{ = }(4)/(3)\pi(3.6)^2\text{ = }(432)/(25)\pi\text{ }\approx\text{ 54.29}

On the other hand, remember that the surface area for the sphere is given by the following equation:


A\text{ = }4\pi\text{ }r^2

In this case, we have that the surface area of the sphere would be:


A\text{ = }4\pi\text{ }r^2\text{ = 4}\pi(3.6)^2\text{ = 162.86}\approx162.9\approx163
