PLEASE HELP WITH MATH, REALLY EASY! I just dont get it.?

B. 732.33 cubic units
C. 225.33 cubic units
D. 676 cubic units
I know there wrong but it's what the computer says! I need an educated guess!

a sphere has a radius of 13 units
Volume of sphere is 4/3 π r³
V = 4/3 π 13³
= 9,202 cubic units
NOT one of their answers.
Let's try to figure out where they went wrong...
If 13 were diameter, V = 2300un³
even that is not an answer!!!
Let's try surface area: 4πr²
SA = 2,123 un² Nope not that either!!
They really screwed up on the answers. Not the first time I've seen this!
For each, let's find Radius:
A. 2,929.33 cubic units; 8.9
B. 732.33 cubic units; 5.6
C. 225.33 cubic units; 3.8
D. 676 cubic units; 5.4
I really have NO idea where they went wrong!

V=(4pr^3)/3 That should be a familiar formula....
V~2929.33p u^3 you left out the pi from the list of answers...
V~9202.77 u^3 (with pi taken into account)
