Answer:

6283 in³

Step-by-step explanation:

The largest sphere that can fit into the cardboard box must have its diameter, d equal to the length, L of the cardboard box.

Since the cardboard box is in the shape of a cube, its volume V = L³

So, L = ∛V

Since V = 12000 in³,

L = ∛(12000 in³)

L= 22.89 in

So, the volume of the sphere, V' = 4πr³/3 where r = radius of cube = L/2

So, V = 4π(L/2)³/3

= 4πL³/8 × 3

= πL³/2 × 3

= πL³/6

= πV/6

= π12000/6

= 2000π

= 6283.19 in³

≅ 6283.2 in³

= 6283 in³ to the nearest whole cubic inch
