Answer:

251.2 units³ ; 80π units³

Explanation:

Volume of a Cylinder is:
V=\pi r^2 h

'r' is the radius.

'h' is he height.

The cylinder has a base radius of 4 units and the height 5 units.

Using 3.14 for Pi:


V=3.14*4^2*5\\V=3.14*16*5\\V= 50.24 * 5\\\boxed {V=251.2}

The approximate volume is 251.2 units³.

In terms of pi:


V=\pi 4^2*5\\\rightarrow 4^2=16\\V=\pi 16*5\\V=\pi 80\\\boxed {V=80\pi}

The exact volume is 80π units³.
