The volume of the peanut butter jar can be calculated using the formula for the volume of a cylinder: V = πr^2h, where r is the radius and h is the height.

Given that the width of the jar is 10 centimeters, the radius (r) is half of the width, so r = 5 cm. The height (h) of the jar is 16 cm.

Plugging the values into the formula, we get:
V = 3.14 * 5^2 * 16
V = 3.14 * 25 * 16
V = 3.14 * 400
V = 1,256 cubic centimeters

Therefore, the correct answer is:
1,256 cubic centimeters
