Final answer:

Calculating the volume of the region inside two different cylinders requires using the formula for a cylindrical shell's volume, regular math to solve the individual volumes, and then subtraction to find the intersection volume.

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of regions within two cylinders, interlinked or overlapped, can indeed be calculated using the formula for the volume of a cylindrical shell.

This formula is usually represented as V = 2πhr^2, wherein V is the volume, h is the height of the cylinder, r is the radius, and π is a constant (~3.14).

If the two cylinders have different dimensions, calculate them separately and then subtract the smaller from the larger to get the volume within both.
