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

\[ \text{Volume} = \pi r^2 h \]

where:

  • \( r \) is the radius of the base,
  • \( h \) is the height of the cylinder,
  • \( \pi \) is approximately 3.14.

Given:

  • Base radius \( r = 4 \) meters,
  • Height \( h = 7 \) meters.

Substituting the values into the formula:

\[ \text{Volume} = 3.14 \times (4^2) \times 7 \]

Calculating \( 4^2 \):

\[ 4^2 = 16 \]

Now, substitute that back:

\[ \text{Volume} = 3.14 \times 16 \times 7 \]

Calculating \( 16 \times 7 \):

\[ 16 \times 7 = 112 \]

Now multiply by \( \pi \):

\[ \text{Volume} = 3.14 \times 112 \]

Calculating that:

\[ 3.14 \times 112 = 350.68 \]

Rounding to the nearest hundredth, the volume of the cylinder is:

\[ \boxed{350.68} \text{ cubic meters} \]
