let the cylinder has radius=r
a base with a circumference of 10 pie centimeters
so 2pie r=10 pie
or r=5 cms
the cylinder has a volume of 300 pie cubic centimeters
volume=pie*r^2 *height=300 pie
or pie*10^2 *height=300 pie
or height=300pie/100pie=3 cms

---------------
C+=+2pi%2Ar
10pi+=+2pi%2Ar
r = 5 cm
-------------
Vol+=+pi%2Ar%5E2%2Ah
300pi+=+pi%2A25%2Ah
h = 12 cm
----------------
PS It's the Greek letter pi, not the dessert, pie.
