Volume of a sphere with a diameter of 15?

I'm having some trouble with this problem.
The volume of a sphere with a diameter of 15. Round answer to nearest tenth.
 
If the formula for the volume of a sphere is 4/3 x 3.14 x r^3 
Wouldn't the radius be 7.5?
 
So, the answer should be 4/3 x 3.14 x 7.5^3 = 1766.3
 
Why did my teacher say this was incorrect?
