A basketball is the shape of a sphere.

The volume of a sphere is given by

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

Given that the diameter of the basketball is 10 in., thus the radius is 10 / 2 = 5 in.

Thus, the volume of the basketball is given by

V= \frac{4}{3} \pi(5)^3 \\  \\ = \frac{4\times125}{3} \pi=523.6\ in^3

Therefore, The best approximate of the volume of the basketball is 5\times10^2\ in^3
