To find the volume of a cylinder, you use the formula V = πr^2h, where r is the radius and h is the height.
Given the radius is 3 centimeters and the height is 5 centimeters, we can plug these values into the formula:
V = 3.14 x (3)^2 x 5
V = 3.14 x 9 x 5
V = 3.14 x 45
V = 141.3
Therefore, the volume of the cylinder is 141.3 cubic centimeters (rounded to the nearest tenth).
