Answer:

Matt used diameter of the ball instead of Radius

Explanation:

The volume of a sphere is given as:

  • 4/3πr³
  • Radius, r = diameter / 2
  • Given that, the diameter = 15 cm ; The Radius = 15 / 2 = 7.5 cm

⇒ Matt made an error in his calculation by failing to covert the value of the diameter given to Radius.

⇒ By dividing the diameter by 2 = 15 / 2 = 7.5, we obtain the Radius, which is what Billy did in her own calculation.
