First, we need to find the radius of the cylinder. The diameter is given as 8 inches, so the radius is half of that, which is 8 / 2 = 4 inches.

Next, we can use the formula for the volume of a cylinder: V = π * r^2 * h.

Plugging in the values we have: V = 3.14 * 4^2 * 12.

Simplifying this: V = 3.14 * 16 * 12 = 602.88 cubic inches.

Therefore, the volume of the cylinder is approximately 602.88 cubic inches.
