The formula for the volume of a cylinder is given by V = πr^2h, where r is the radius and h is the height.
Given that the diameter of the cylinder is 16 inches, we can calculate the radius by dividing the diameter by 2: r = 16 / 2 = 8 inches.
Plugging in the values for radius and height into the volume formula, we get V = π(8^2) * 7 = π * 64 * 7 ≈ 1408 cubic inches.
Rounding to the nearest hundredth, the volume of the cylinder is approximately 1408 cubic inches.
