To find the volume of a cylinder, you can use the formula:
\[ \text{Volume} = \pi r^2 h \]
where \( r \) is the radius of the base and \( h \) is the height of the cylinder.
From the given information:
- Radius \( r = 3 \) cm
- Height \( h = 6 \) cm
- Use \( \pi \approx 3.14 \)
Now plug in the values:
\[ \text{Volume} = 3.14 \times (3)^2 \times 6 \]
Calculating \( (3)^2 \):
\[ (3)^2 = 9 \]
Now substitute this back into the volume formula:
\[ \text{Volume} = 3.14 \times 9 \times 6 \]
Calculating \( 9 \times 6 \):
\[ 9 \times 6 = 54 \]
Now, multiply by \( 3.14 \):
\[ \text{Volume} = 3.14 \times 54 \]
Calculating \( 3.14 \times 54 \):
\[ 3.14 \times 54 = 169.56 \]
Therefore, the volume of the cylinder is:
\[ 169.56 \text{ cubic centimeters} \]
The correct response is 169.56 cubic centimeters.
