382 in³

The basketball is spherical in shape and it's approximate volume (V) can be calculated using the formula

V = [tex]\frac{4}{3}[/tex]πr³ ( where r is the radius )

here the diameter = 9 ⇒ r = [tex]\frac{9}{2}[/tex] = 4.5

V = [tex]\frac{4}{3}[/tex]π × 4.5³

  = [tex]\frac{4}{3}[/tex]π  × 91.125 = 381.7 ≈ 382 in³
