Question

What is the volume of a cylinder, in cubic centimeters, with a height of 8 centimeters

and a base diameter of 16 centimeters? Round to the nearest tenths place

Answer 1

1608.5 cm³

Explanation:

Use the cylinder volume formula, V =
`\pi`r²h

If the diameter is 16 cm, then the radius is 8 cm.

Plug in the radius and height into the formula, and solve:

V =
`\pi`r²h

V =
`\pi`(8)²(8)

V =
`\pi`(64)(8)

V = 1608.5

So, to the nearest tenth, the volume of the cylinder is 1608.5 cm³
