![**Problem:**
A spherical snowball is melting in such a way that its radius is decreasing at a rate of 0.4 cm/min. At what rate is the volume of the snowball decreasing when the radius is 9 cm? (Note the answer is a positive number).
\[\boxed{\phantom{123}} \quad \text{cm}^3/\text{min}\]
**Hint:** The volume of a sphere of radius \( r \) is \( V = \frac{4}{3}\pi r^3 \).](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2F9f1c5ee8-9f50-4f4c-aa8f-9d252d015e08%2F13e4279a-4ab0-48c5-ba0e-ae56917d0c8d%2Fv8cno4_processed.png&w=3840&q=75)
