To calculate the volume of a cylinder, you need to use the formula V = πr²h, where V is the volume, π is a mathematical constant approximately equal to 3.14159, r is the radius of the base, and h is the height.

Given that the base diameter is 4m, the radius (r) can be calculated by dividing the diameter by 2:

r = 4m / 2 = 2m

Now we can substitute the values into the formula:

V = π(2m)²(8m)
V = π(4m²)(8m)
V = 32πm³

To round the volume to the nearest tenth, we can use the approximate value of π as 3.14159:

V ≈ 32 × 3.14159 ≈ 100.53096m³

Rounding to the nearest tenth:

V ≈ 100.5m³

Therefore, the volume of the cylinder is approximately 100.5 cubic meters.

I hope this helps! :)
