Answer:

Explanation:

Volume =

4 × π × r³ / 3 <----- This is our volume equation

= 4 × π × 1.9³ / 3 (Substituted the unknown r for the radius given, 1.9 cm)

= 4 × π × 6.859 / 3 (Cubed it, aka: Multiplied 1.9 by itself thrice, 1.9 × 1.9 × 1.9

= 4 × 21.548184011 / 3 (Multiplied 6.859 by pi "π")

= 86.1927360439 / 3 (Multiplied that by 4)

= 28.7309120146 cm³ (Divided it by 3, gave it a ³ dimension because it is 3D, volume.

28.73cm³ or 28.7cm³ or 29cm³. (rounded answers, hundreths, tenths and ones)

Based on the question, I assume you got a couple of options to choose from and have to pick the closest? Pick the answer closest to the answers given above.
