\bf \textit{volume of a cylinder}\\\\ V=\pi r^2 h~~ \begin{cases} r=radius\\ h=height\\ \cline{1-1} r=5\\ h=14 \end{cases}\implies V=\pi (5)^2(14)\implies V=350\pi \\\\\\ \stackrel{\pi =3.14}{V=1099}~\hfill \stackrel{\textit{how much is }(2)/(3)\textit{ of that?}}{1099\cdot \cfrac{2}{3}\implies \cfrac{2198}{3}}\implies \stackrel{\textit{rounded up}}{732.7}

Answer:

It's asking for you to calculate the volume of a cylinder and multiply it by 2/3. This is because the question is asking how much water is in a cylindrical vase with the height and radius.

The formula to calculate the volume of a cylinder is : 3.14 (r^2) (h)

R being the radius and H being the height.

Plug in the values then multiply it all by 2/3

Hoped this help you solve your problem.
