    Difference of the volumes of the spheres=volume greater sphere - volume smaller sphere.

    Volume of a sphere = (4/3) πr³

    Difference of the volumes of the spheres = (4/3) πr₁³ - (4/3) πr₂³ = (4/3) π (r₁³-r₂³)

    dа ta:

    r₁=9 ft

    r₂=6 ft

    then:

    Difference of the volumes of the spheres=4/3π[ (9 ft) ³ - (6 ft) ³] = (4/3) π (513 ft³) =

    ≈2148.85 ft³.

    Answer: 2148.85 ft³

    Well the formula to find the volume of a sphere is 3/4 (pi) r^3

    sphere with the radius of 9: 3/4 (pi) 9^3 = 3053.63

    sphere with the radius of 6: 3/4 (pi) 6^3 = 904.78

    the difference: 2148.85
