To find the surface area of a cylinder, you need to calculate the sum of the areas of the two circular bases and the lateral surface area.

The formula for the surface area of a cylinder is:

Surface Area = 2πr^2 + 2πrh

where r is the radius of the circular base and h is the height of the cylinder.

Since an approximation of 3.14 for pi is given, let's assume the radius is 9 yards and the height is 7 yards.

Surface Area = 2(3.14)(9^2) + 2(3.14)(9)(7)
Surface Area = 2(3.14)(81) + 2(3.14)(9)(7)
Surface Area = 2(254.34) + 2(198.18)
Surface Area ≈ 508.68 + 396.36
Surface Area ≈ 905.04

Therefore, the surface area of the cylinder is approximately 905.04 square yards. None of the given options match this value.
