17.4 (3 Significant numbers)

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula for finding Cylinder : π r² h

So your 5453 = π x (20cm : 2) ² x height

To get height (tallness), divide 5453 by (100π)

Depending on your π, your answer should be either, 17.366 / 17.35 / 17.357 which all rounds up to 17.4 if your question asks for 3 significant figures
