The volume of a cylindrical container can be found using the formula V = πr^2h, where r is the radius and h is the height.

In this case, the diameter is given as 13 centimeters. Since the radius is half the diameter, the radius would be 13/2 = 6.5 centimeters.

Plugging in the values, the volume is V = π(6.5^2)(24) = 3.14159(42.25)(24) = 3,185.6694 cubic centimeters.

Rounding to the nearest tenth, the volume is approximately 3,185.6 cubic centimeters.

Therefore, the correct answer is A) 3,185.6 cubic centimeters.

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

In this case, the diameter is given as 8 centimeters. So, the radius would be half the diameter, which is 8/2 = 4 centimeters.

Plugging in the values, the volume is V = π(4^2)(12) = π(16)(12) = 192π cubic centimeters.

Therefore, the correct answer is B) 192π.

Apologies for the confusion. I made a mistake in my previous response. Let me correct it:

Given that the diameter is 8 centimeters, the radius is half of that, which is 4 centimeters.

To find the volume, we can use the formula V = πr^2h, where r is the radius and h is the height.

The volume is V = π(4^2)(12) = π(16)(12) = 192π cubic centimeters.

Therefore, the correct answer is B) 192π.
