To find the volume of the soup pot, we can use the formula for the volume of a cylinder, which is V = πr^2h, where r is the radius and h is the height.
Plugging in the given values, we have V = π(6^2)(15) = π(36)(15) = 540π cubic inches.
To find the approximate value of the volume, we can use the approximation π ≈ 3.14.
Therefore, the approximate volume is 540(3.14) ≈ 1695.6 cubic inches.
Hence, the answer is D) 1695.6 in.
