Answer:

301.5936 cubic ft

Explanation:

Formula for the volume of a cylinder is V = pi*r*r*h, where r represents the radius and h represents the height of the cylinder. Since radius is half the length of diameter, the pipe has a radius of 4/2 = 2 ft.

V = pi*r*r*h = 3.1416*2*2*24 = 301.5936 cubic ft
