To find the volume of a cylinder, you can use the formula:

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

where \( r \) is the radius and \( h \) is the height.

From your description, it looks like the cylinder has a diameter of 6 inches on the top, which means the radius \( r \) is half of that:

\[ r = \frac{6}{2} = 3 \text{ inches} \]

The height \( h \) of the cylinder is given as 5 inches.

Now, plug the values into the volume formula:

\[ V = \pi (3)^2 (5) \]
\[ V = \pi (9)(5) \]
\[ V = 45\pi \]

It looks like my calculation does not match any of the options you provided (30π, 60π, 150π, 180π). Please double-check the dimensions of the cylinder.

If you meant that the height is actually different or if there are any other measurements to consider, let me know!
