The formula to calculate the volume of a cylinder is V = πr^2h, where r is the radius of the cylinder and h is the height of the cylinder.
Given that the width of the cylinder is 8 cm, the radius (r) would be half of the width, so r = 4 cm.
Given that the height of the cylinder is 12 cm, h = 12 cm.
Now we can plug the values into the formula to find the volume:
V = 3.14 x 4^2 x 12
V = 3.14 x 16 x 12
V = 3.14 x 192
V ≈ 602.88 cm^3
Therefore, the approximate volume of the cylindrical container is 602.88 cm^3.
Calculate the approximate volume of a cylindrical container that is 8 cm wide and 12 cm tall. Use 3.14 for π .(1 point)
