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 of the basketball is given as 9.2 inches, the radius would be half of that, which is 4.6 inches.
Plugging the value of the radius into the formula, we have:
V = (4/3)(3.14)(4.6)^3
Calculating this results in approximately 407.51 inches cubed.
So, the correct answer is:
407.51 in.3
