How many dots per square inch on an NCAA basketball are there?

there are about 720 dots going around the Basketball. We Will say there are 720 "dot units". This is the circumference. To find the diameter of the basketball in dot units, divide 720 by pie(3.14). Divide this by 2 for the radius (Circ = 2*pie*r). Now we must find the area for the basketball expressed in dot units. Area of a circle is pie*r^2. This gives us 41,274. This is just an estimate and is probably off by at least a couple thousand. ---- there are about 760 kristins on a basketball According to the Spalding website, (http://www.spalding.com/contact/contact.html#Q6), there are 122 pebbles per square inch on a Spalding basketball which makes approximately 35,000 pebbles total.
