1 liter = 1 cubic decimeter = 1
2.1 m = 21 decimeters = 21 dm
600 mm = 6 decimeters = 6 dm
What is the shape of the container?
If it a cylindrical tank with a 2.1 meter (21 dm) diameter and a 600 mm (6 dm) height,
its radius is .
Then, since the volume of a cylinder can be calculated as
, the volume (in cubic decimeters, or liters)
that such a tank can hold (filled all the way to the rim) is

For practical purposes, you could easily fit 2,000 liters of water.
