Question

The softball in the mitt is 5.2 inches in diameter. What is its volume?

Answer 1

Answer: 72.9 in^3

Step-by-step explanation:

The softball is a sphere, and we know that the volume of a sphere is:

V = (4/3)*pi*r^3

where pi = 3.14 and r is the radius.

We also know that the radius is half the diameter, and the diameter is 5.2 in

r = 5.2in/2 = 2.6in

Then the volume is:

V = (4/3)*pi*(2.6in)^3 = 72.9 in^3
