Question

What is the volume, in cubic centimeters, of a cylinder with a height of 12 centimeters and a base radius of 6 centimeters, to the nearest tenths place?

A) 452.4 cubic centimeters
B) 452.4 cubic centimeters
C) 1356.0 cubic centimeters
D) 1356.0 cubic centimeters

Answer 1

The volume of the cylinder is approximately 1356.2 cubic centimeters.

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a cylinder can be calculated using the formula V = πr²h. In this case, the height is given as 12 centimeters, and the base radius is 6 centimeters.

Plugging in these values into the formula, we get:

V = 3.142 × (6 cm)² × 12 cm = 1356.192 cm³

Rounding to the nearest tenths place, the volume is approximately 1356.2 cubic centimeters.
