Answer:

Volume of the ball = 2.48 inch³

Explanation:

A golf ball is in the shape of a sphere.

Therefore, volume of the ball will be given by,

Volume =
$(4)/(3)\pi r^(3)$

Here, r = Radius of the ball

By substituting the value of 'r' in the formula,

Volume of the golf ball =
$(4)/(3)\pi (\frac{\text{Diameter}}{2})^(3)$

=
$(4)/(3)(3.14) (\frac{\text{1.68}}{2})^(3)$

=
(4)/(3)(3.14) (0.84)^(3)

= 2.482 inch³

≈ 2.48 inch³
