Answer:

268

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume formula for a sphere is: V= [tex]\frac{4}{3}\pi r^{3}[/tex]

We also know that [tex]\pi[/tex] is approximately 3.14.

You have to know these in order to solve the question..

Since we also know the diameter is 8 we can also find the radius (r) ,which is half of the diamater so 4.

Now all we need to do it plug in the numbers.

V= [tex]\frac{4}{3}[/tex](3.14)[tex]4^{3}[/tex]

Now solve for the equation.

V=267.94...

So rounded that is 268.
