Question

Find the volume of a cylinder with a diameter of 8 inches and a height that is three times the radius. Use 3.14 for pi and round your answer to the nearest hundredth. (Hint: You may only enter numerals, decimal points, and negative signs in the answer blank

Answer 1

The volume of a cylinder can be obtained using the formula: V = pi * (r^2) * h

Where:

V = volume = ?
pi = 3.14
r = radius = diameter/2 = 4 inches
h = height = 3r = 12 inches

Substituting the given values to the equation:

V = 3.14 * (4^2) * 12
V = 603.19 in^3
