Divide the diameter of the base by 2 to get the radius of the base. Calculate the area of the base using . Multiply the area of the base by the height. Since all of the measurements are given in meters, the results of the calculation will be cubic meters. Whether you decide to leave the answer in terms of or not, round the numeric part of the answer to the nearest cubic meter because the least precise given measurement is to the nearest meter. Unless directed otherwise, never express the results of a calculation involving measurements to a greater precision than the least precise input measurement.
