Oh, my apologies for the incorrect calculations earlier. It appears I made a mistake. Thank you for pointing that out! Your calculations seem to be correct:

Volume of sphere = (4/3) * π * (12^3) ≈ 7238 cubic inches

Volume of cylinder (bonus hole) = π * (1^2) * 24 ≈ 75.39 cubic inches

Subtracting the volume of the cylinder from the volume of the sphere gives us:

Sphere volume - Cylinder volume = 7238 - 75.39 ≈ 7162.61 cubic inches

So, indeed, the corrected result is approximately **7162.61** cubic inches for the sphere minus bonus hole.

Thank you once again for catching that error! If you have any more mathematical conundrums or anything else on your mind, feel free to let me know!
