What is the exact volume of a sphere with a diameter of 18 cm?<br> ______ cm3

madam [21]

The formula to find the volume of a sphere is: V= $\frac{4}{3} \pi r^{3}$
Since the diameter is 18 cm, so the radius is equal to r=18/2 = 9
Now we replace r by it's value, so we get:
$\frac{4}{3} \pi 9^{3}$
$\frac{4}{3} \pi 729$
$972 \pi$
And we get approximately $3053.63 cm^{3}$
Hope this Helps :D
