What is the volume of a cylinder, in cubic cm, with a height of 7cm and a base diameter of 10cm?

Hello there!

The formula to finding the volume of a cylinder is V=Πr^2h.

First, let's find our radius since we we have our diameter.

To find the radius, we will divide the diameter by 2 to get our radius.

So, 10 divided by 2 equals 5. Our radius would be 5.

Then, we can now plug the values into the equation.

V = 3.14 (5^2) 7

First, solve the parentheses. 5^2 equals 25.

Then, it doesn't matter which way you multiply but let's go from left to right.

3.14 x 25 = 78.5

78.5 x 7 = 549.5

Therefore, the volume of the cylinder would be 549.5cm^3.
