Answer:

The area of base is 47.1 m² or 15π m².

Explanation:

Given that the formula of volume of cylinder is V = πr²h where πr² is the base area of cylinder so you have to substitute the following values into the formula :


v = \pi * {r}^(2) * h

Let v = 315π,

Let h = 21,


315\pi = \pi {r}^(2) * 21


\pi {r}^(2) = 315\pi / 21


\pi {r}^(2) = 15\pi


base \: area = 15\pi \: {m}^(2)


base \: area = 47.1 \: {m}^(2) (3s.f)
