Abaseball has a 45 cm diameter. what is the volume of the contents of the ball

47732.14 cm³

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the volume of the sphere with a diameter of 45 cm, we simply use the formula for calculating volume of a sphere, since a base ball is also spherical in shape.

Volume of a sphere = 4/3 πr³

But in the question, we were given diameter, so we can find our radius using the diameter given.

radius = diameter / 2

radius = 45 / 2

radius(r) =22.5 cm

The constant value of π is always 22/7 or 3.142 unless stated otherwise.

We can now go ahead and insert our values into the formula;

Volume of baseball = 4/3 πr³

                                  =4/3 × 22/7  × (22.5)³

                                  = 1002375   /    21

                                  =47,732.14 cm³

Volume of the baseball = 47,732.14 cm³
