Answer:

589.4 cubic inches.

Explanation:

The volume of the cube with each side of the measure of 9.5 inches.

So, the volume of the cube will be (9.5 × 9.5 × 9.5) = 857.375 cubic inches.

Now, if there is a ball inside this cube with volume 268 cubic inches then the remaining volume inside the cube is filled with air.

Therefore, the volume of air inside the cube will be (857.375 - 268) = 589.375 cubic inches ≈ 589.4 cubic inches. (Answer)
