The formula for the volume of a cylinder is V = πr^2h, where r is the radius (which is half the diameter) and h is the height.

Given a diameter of 16 inches, the radius is 16/2 = 8 inches.

Using π ≈ 3.14, the volume V = 3.14 * (8^2) * 7 = 3.14 * 64 * 7 = 1409.92 cubic inches.

Rounded to the nearest hundredth, the volume of the cylinder is 1409.92 cubic inches.

Apologies for the mistake. Let's correct it.

The formula for the volume of a cylinder is V = πr^2h, where r is the radius (which is half the diameter) and h is the height.

Given a diameter of 16 inches, the radius is 16/2 = 8 inches.

Using π ≈ 3.14, the volume V = 3.14 * (8^2) * 7 = 3.14 * 64 * 7 = 1408.64 cubic inches.

Rounded to the nearest hundredth, the volume of the cylinder is 1408.64 cubic inches.
