Answer:

36 in³

Explanation:

To solve this problem, we will use the formula for the volume of a cylinder, which is:


V=\pi r^2 h

Where:

  • 'π' is a mathematical constant approximately equal to 3.14159. However, as specified, we will use 3 for 'π'.
  • r is the radius of the cylinder's base.
  • 'ℎ' is the height of the cylinder.

Given:

  • ℎ = 12 in
  • d = 2 in; Since the radius is half of the diameter, the radius (r) is 1 inch.

Now, let's calculate the volume:


\Longrightarrow V=(3)(1 \ in)^2(12 \ in)\\\\\\\\\Longrightarrow V=(3)(1 \ in^2)(12 \ in)\\\\\\\\\therefore V = \boxed{36 \ in^3}

Therefore, the volume of the cylinder is 36 cubic inches.
