To find the volume of a cylinder, you can use the formula V = πr²h, where r is the radius of the base and h is the height of the cylinder.
Since the length of the cylinder is given as 3 cm, and we know that the radius is half of the length, we can calculate the radius as r = 3/2 = 1.5 cm.
Substituting these values into the formula, we get: V = 3.14 * (1.5)^2 * 5
Simplifying this calculation, we have: V ≈ 3.14 * 2.25 * 5
Multiplying the numbers together, we find: V ≈ 35.325
Rounding this to the nearest tenth, the volume of the cylinder is approximately 35.3 cubic centimeters.
Find the volume of the cylinder, in cubic centimeters. Use 3.14 for pi. Round your answer to the nearest tenth.
