[tex]\text{Volume}=333\text{ cubic inches}[/tex]
Explanation
we need to asume the bowling ball is a perfect sphere ( with no holes), and we can use the formula for the volume of a sphere
[tex]\text{Volume}=\frac{4}{3}\pi\cdot radius^3[/tex]
Step 1
Let
diameter=8.6 inches
diameter= 2*radius
hence
radius=8.6 inches /2
radius=4.3 inches
Now, replace
[tex]\begin{gathered} \text{Volume}=\frac{4}{3}\pi\cdot radius^3 \\ \text{Volume}=\frac{4}{3}\pi\cdot(4.3inches)^3 \\ \text{Volume}=\frac{4}{3}\pi\cdot79.507in^3 \\ \text{Volume}=333.038\text{ cubic inches} \\ \text{rounded} \\ \text{Volume}=333\text{ cubic inches} \end{gathered}[/tex]
I hope this helps you
