Answer:

Both volumes are the same

Explanation:

Volume of cylinder =
\pi
r^(2) h

r = radius

h = height

Since area of the circle is given on top,

Area of a circle =
\pi
r^(2)

We know the area is 12

12 =
\pi
r^(2) (we need to find r)

r =
\sqrt{(12)/(\pi) }

r = 1.954

Now we can find the cylinder's volume:

Volume of cylinder =
\pi
(1.954)^(2) (6)

Volume of cylinder = 72

To find the volume of the cuboid, we use

Volume of cuboid = lwh

l = length

w = width

h = height

Volume of cuboid = 6 x 4 x 3

Volume of cuboid = 72

This proves that both the volumes are the same.
