Answer:

18π cubic inches

Explanation:

First, we need to find the radius of the cone, which is half of the diameter.

radius = diameter/2 = 6/2 = 3 inches

The formula for the volume of a cone is:

V = 1/3 × π × r^2 × h

where r is the radius of the base of the cone, and h is the height of the cone.

Substituting the values we get:

V = 1/3 × π × 3^2 × 6

V = 1/3 × π × 9 × 6

V = π × 18
