To find the volume of a sphere, you can use the formula V = (4/3)πr^3, where r is the radius of the sphere. Since the diameter is given, we can divide it by 2 to get the radius.
Radius = diameter/2 = 12 inches/2 = 6 inches
Now we can plug this value into the formula:
V = (4/3)(3.14)(6^3)
= (4/3)(3.14)(216)
≈ 904.32 in^3
Therefore, the volume of the globe is approximately 904.32 in^3.
