B Correct answer
Explanation

The volume of a sphere is (4/3) * pi * r^3. With r = 9 and pi = 3.14, volume = (4/3) * 3.14 * 729 = 4 * 3.14 * 243 = 3052.08. Rounded to the nearest whole number, this is 3052.

AI explanation

The formula for the volume of a sphere is four thirds times pi times the radius cubed, which gives four thirds times 3.14 times 9 cubed. Calculating 9 cubed yields 729, so the expression becomes 4 times 3.14 times 243. This results in a volume of 3052.08, which rounds to 3052 yards3.
