Question

anonymous · Answer

Do you know the equation for the volume of a sphere?

callisto · Answer

Radius r = diameter /2 = 22/2 =11
Put $\pi = 3.14$and r= 11 into the formula $V=\frac{4}{3} \pi r^3$ to find the volume.

Hm.. but that's not the answer.
The answer you've got was  5572.453. That sounds better. The only problem is that you haven't rounded this answer.
