Answer 2

C

Explanation:

Try each one using the formula for the volume of a cylinder, pi * r^2 * h:

A. 3.14 * 12^2 * 5 = about 2261 which does not equal 565

B. 3.14 * 10^2 * 4 = about 1256 which does not equal 565

C. 3.14 * 6^2 * 5 = about 565 which is correct!

D. 3.14 * 6^2 * 10 = about 1130 which does not equal 565

Therefore C is the right answer.
