The volume of a cylinder is the area of the base times the height, so . The volume of a sphere is , and a hemisphere is half of a sphere so, .

The volume of a cylinder and a hemisphere together is the sum of the two volumes, so:



You can do a little algebra to simplify the arithmetic:



Plug in the given values and do the arithmetic. Remember you are given the diameter which is two times the radius.
