Answer 1

To find the volume \( V \) of a cylinder, we can use the formula:

\[
V = \pi r^2 h
\]

where:
- \( r \) is the radius of the cylinder,
- \( h \) is the height of the cylinder,
- \( \pi \) is approximately 3.14.

Given:
- Radius \( r = 5 \) cm
- Height \( h = 15 \) cm

Substituting the values into the formula:

\[
V = 3.14 \times (5)^2 \times 15
\]
\[
V = 3.14 \times 25 \times 15
\]
\[
V = 3.14 \times 375
\]
\[
V = 1177.5 \text{ cubic centimeters}
\]

So, the volume of the cylinder is **1177.5 cubic centimeters**.

The correct response is:
**1177.5 cubic centimeters**.
