Answer:

603.2 cubic inches

Explanation:

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

radius = 12 inches / 2 = 6 inches

Next, we can use the formula to find the volume of a cone:

V = (1/3)πr^2h

where V is the volume, π is pi (approximately 3.14), r is the radius, and h is the height.

Substituting in the values we have:

V = (1/3)π(6 inches)^2(16 inches)

V = (1/3)π(36 square inches)(16 inches)

V = (1/3)π(576 cubic inches)

V = 192π cubic inches

Rounding to the nearest tenth, the volume of the cone is:

V ≈ 603.2 cubic inches

Hopes this helps
