12/49

4*3=12
7*7=49
12/49 miles long is being repaved.

This can be tested by taking a mile (in feet for example) and multiplying 5280 ft by 4/7 then by 3/7 to get the same answer as taking 5280 ft times 12/49.

Answer:

V = 8,181.23 $cm^{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Unfortunately, we are not given any answer choices to choose from but using the information provided we can find the actual volume of the basketball. A basketball is made in the shape of a sphere and the formula for the volume of a sphere is the following...

V = $\frac{4}{3} * \pi * r^{3}$

radius of a circle/sphere is half of it's diameter. Since we are provided the diameter size we simply divide it by 2 which would give us 12.5cm. Now we simply plug this value into the formula and solve for V.

V = $\frac{4}{3} * \pi * 12.5^{3}$
