The formula for the volume of a sphere is given by V = (4/3) * pi * r^3, where r is the radius of the sphere.
Since the diameter is given as 9.2 inches, the radius would be half of that, which is 4.6 inches.
Plugging this value into the formula, we get V = (4/3) * 3.14 * (4.6)^3.
Calculating this, we find V ≈ 407.51 in.^3.
Therefore, the volume of the basketball is approximately 407.51 in.^3.
