Given:

Edge of the cube = 5.6 cm

Formula used:

The volume of the sphere = (4/3) × π × r3

Calculation:

Diameter of the sphere = Edge of the cube

⇒ 2 × radius of sphere = 5.6 cm

⇒ The radius of sphere = 5.6/2 = 2.8 cm

The volume of the sphere = (4/3) × (22/7) × (2.8)3

⇒ 88/21 × 21.952

⇒ 91.98

∴ The volume of the largest sphere that can be taken out of the cube is 91.98 cm3
