Volume of a Cylinder

12.6213281 cubic inch

Explanation:

The volume of a cylinder is defined as πr²h where r is radius of base and h is height of cylinder.

V = πr²h

Given Height of cylinder h = 5.25 inches

Given Diameter of base of cylinder d = 1.75 inches

π = 3.14

So the radius r =
(d)/(2) =
(1.75)/(2)

Volume V = 3.14 × (
(1.75)/(2))² × 5.25

V = 3.14 × (0.875)² × 5.25

= 3.14 × 0.765625 × 5.25

= 12.6213281 cubic inch

So the volume of the cylinder is 12.6213281 cubic inch
