Answer:

The approximate volume of the sphere is 904.32 cubit units

Explanation:

The volume of a sphere

Given a sphere of radius r, its volume is calculated by:


\displaystyle V=(4)/(3)\pi r^3

The radius of the sphere is r=6 units, thus the volume of the sphere is:


\displaystyle V=(4)/(3)\pi 6^3

π≈3.14


\displaystyle V=(4)/(3)\cdot 3.14\cdot 6^3


\displaystyle V=(4)/(3)\cdot 3.14\cdot 216

V = 904.32 cubit units

The approximate volume of the sphere is 904.32 cubit units
