Answer:

I agree with Mai

Volume of a sphere = 4/3 x pi x r^3

4/3 x pi x 9^3 = 972 pi

Explanation:

Four students each calculated the volume of a sphere with a radius of 9 centimeters and they got four different answers.

Han thinks it is 108 cubic centimeters.

Jada got 108pi cubic centimeters.

Tyler calculated 972 cubic centimeters.

Mai says it is 972pi cubic centimeters.

Do you agree with any of them? Explain your reasoning.
