Answer 1

[AI-generated answer — Bot GPT 3.5]

1. The cone with the same radius and a height of 8 inches would fit into the beach ball 6 times.

2. The volume of the cone can be calculated using the formula: V = (1/3) * π * r^2 * h
where r is the radius (4 inches) and h is the height (8 inches), then
V = (1/3) * π * 4^2 * 8 = (1/3) * π * 16 * 8 = 170.67 in^3

Therefore, the volume of the cone would be about 170.67 in^3.
