Multiply one-half of the diameter (the radius) by itself and then multiply by Pi to find the area. Then multiply the area by the length of the cylinder. Example: you have a cylinder that is 6" diameter and 8" long. Multiply one-half of the diameter by itself (3x3 = 9) then multiply by Pi (9x3.1416 = 28.2744). Now multiply by the length (28.2744x8 = 226.1952). The volume of the cylinder is 226.2 (rounded off) cubic inches.

height of cylinder multiple with the circumference of the circle: h x (pi)r^2
h = height of cylinder
pi = 3.142 (in 3 decimal point)
r = radius of the circle
r^2 = r-square = r x r
Volume= Base(Height) Base= Area of the Circle. Area of a Circle= π r^2 (pi times radius squared)
