Answer:

C) 905 km³

Explanation:

You want the volume of a cylinder 12 km in diameter and 8 km high.

Volume

The volume is given by the formula ...

V = πr²h

The radius is half the diameter, so is (12 km)/2 = 6 km. Then the volume is ...

V = π(6 km)²(8 km) ≈ 905 km³

The volume of the cylinder is about 905 km³.
