The container is a cylindrical solid.

Don't know why you call it over-sized but that might not make a difference.

It's diameter is 2 meters.

It's height is 3 meters.

It's radius is 1 meter which is one half the diameter.

The area of its base is presumed to be a circle which would be equal to .

Substitute 1 for r to get Area of the Base = .

Since = 3.141592654, then the Area of the Base = 3.141592654 square meters.

The volume of the container would be equal to the Area of the Base Times the Height, which would then be equal to:

3.141592654 * 3 = 9.424777961 cubic meters.

The formula for the volume of the container is .

Since is the formula for the area of the base, then the formula for the volume of the container becomes:

Area of the Base * Height.
