What is the volume of a cylinder with a height of 18.6 inches and a base with a radius of 6.2 inches, rounded to the nearest tenth of a cubic inch?

A) 686.1 cubic inches
B) 217.1 cubic inches
C) 218.5 cubic inches
D) 686.2 cubic inches

Answer :

Final answer:

The volume of the cylinder is approximately 217.1 cubic inches. Hence the correct answer is option B

Explanation:

The volume of a cylinder can be found using the formula V = πr²h, where V represents the volume, r is the radius of the base, and h is the height of the cylinder.

Plugging in the given values, we get V = 3.142 × (6.2 in)² × 18.6 in.

Calculating this, we find that the volume of the cylinder is approximately 217.1 cubic inches.

Hence the correct answer is option B
