Assuming the softball is a sphere...

yes it is dan

OpenStudy (danjs):

The volume is (4/3) * pi * r^3 You can use the circumference to get the radius

OpenStudy (danjs):

circumference = 2*pi*r

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thanks guys

OpenStudy (danjs):

Circumference is given \[12 = 2\pi *r\] So the radius is \[r=6/\pi\]

OpenStudy (danjs):
