The rule of the volume of the cylinder is

r is its radius
h is its height
Since the vase is shaped a cylinder, with a diameter 8 in and height of 7 in, then

Substitute them in the rule above

Since the volume of the water is 2/3 the volume of the vase, then

Round it to the nearest hundredth, then

The volume of the water in the vase is 234.45 cubic inches
