Using the formula for the volume of a sphere, we have:
V = (4/3)πr^3
Since the diameter of the bowling ball is 24 cm, the radius (r) would be half of that:
r = 24/2 = 12 cm
Now plug in the values:
V = (4/3)(3.14)(12)^3
V = (4/3)(3.14)(1728)
V = (4/3)(5433.12)
V = 7244.16 cubic cm
Rounded to the nearest 10th, the volume of the bowling ball is approximately 7244.2 cubic cm.
a bowling ball has a diameter of 24 cm. what is the volume of the bowling ball in cubic units assume pi = 3.14 and round your answer to the nearest 10th when necessary
