Answer:
47732.14 cm³
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the volume of the sphere with a diameter of 45 cm, we simply use the formula for calculating volume of a sphere, since a base ball is also spherical in shape.
Volume of a sphere = 4/3 πr³
But in the question, we were given diameter, so we can find our radius using the diameter given.
radius = diameter / 2
radius = 45 / 2
radius(r) =22.5 cm
The constant value of π is always 22/7 or 3.142 unless stated otherwise.
We can now go ahead and insert our values into the formula;
Volume of baseball = 4/3 πr³
=4/3 × 22/7 × (22.5)³
= 1002375 / 21
=47,732.14 cm³
Volume of the baseball = 47,732.14 cm³
