To calculate the volume \( V \) of a cylinder, you can use the formula:

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

where:
- \( r \) is the radius,
- \( h \) is the height,
- \( \pi \) is approximately 3.14159.

Given that the radius \( r \) is 6.2 cm and the height \( h \) is 12.4 cm, we can substitute these values into the formula:

\[
V = \pi (6.2)^2 (12.4)
\]

Calculating \( (6.2)^2 \):

\[
(6.2)^2 = 38.44
\]

Now we can plug it into the volume formula:

\[
V = \pi (38.44) (12.4)
\]

Next, calculate \( 38.44 \times 12.4 \):

\[
38.44 \times 12.4 = 476.576
\]

Now, multiply by \( \pi \):

\[
V \approx 3.14159 \times 476.576 \approx 1499.56 \text{ cm}^3
\]

Thus, the volume of the cylindrical perfume bottle is approximately \( 1499.56 \) cm³.
