We are given that the volume of the cylinder is 239 cubic centimetres and its height is 6 centimeters.

The formula for the volume of a cylinder is V = πr^2h, where V is the volume, r is the radius, and h is the height.

We can rearrange this formula to solve for h: h = V / (πr^2).

However, we are not given the radius of the cylinder, so we need to find it first.

The formula for the volume can also be written as V = Bh, where B is the base area of the cylinder (which is the area of the circle with radius r).

We can rearrange this formula to solve for the radius: r = √(V / πh).

Plugging in the given values, we get:

r = √(239 / (π * 6)) ≈ 2.31 centimeters.

Now we can use the formula for h:

h = V / (πr^2) = 6.0 centimeters (to one decimal place).

Therefore, the height of the cylinder is 6.0 centimeters.
