The formula to calculate the volume of a cylinder is V = πr^2h, where r is the radius of the cylinder and h is the height.
First, we need to find the radius of the cylinder. The diameter is 20 inches, so the radius is half of that: 20 / 2 = 10 inches.
V = π(10)^2(6)
V = π(100)(6)
V = 600π
Using 3.14 as the approximate value of π:
V ≈ 600(3.14)
V ≈ 1884 cubic inches
Therefore, the volume of the cylinder is approximately 1884 cubic inches.
