The volume of a cylinder is given by:
V+=+pi%2Ar%5E2%2Ah Substitute pi+=+3.1416, r+=+5%2F2, and h+=+140.
V+=+%283.1416%29%285%2F2%29%5E2%28140%29
highlight%28V+=+2748.9%29cubic cm.

-------------
V+=+pi%2Ar%5E2%2Ah
r = 2.5 cm
h = 14 cm (140 mm = 14 cm)
V+=+pi%2A2.5%5E2%2A14
V = 87.5pi ml (milliliters and cubic centimeters are equal)
V =~ 275.9 ml
