By calculating the areas of circles with diameters 6 and 4 and comparing those:

pi3^2=pi9

pi2^2=pi4

pi9/pi4=9/4=2.25

So the 6 inch pipe holds 2.25 times as much as the 4 inch pipe.

A four inch pipe carry how much more volume than a 2 inch pipe?

It is based on the flow area, which is proportional to the square of the diameter. 2 squared = 4. 4 squared = 16. So, the 4 inch pipe can take 16/4 = 4 times the volume of the 2 inch pipe. It might be less confusing if you had picked sizes other than 2 and 4. This is a rough calculation, since pipe inside diameters are not the same as nominal sizes, but close enough for most purposes.

When replacing 80 ft of old steel pipe which is fed from half inch pipe with copper is there any reason to use 3.4 inch pipe instead?

If the old steel pipe was half inch, it is recommended to replace it with half inch copper pipe to maintain consistent water flow. Using a larger diameter pipe (3/4 inch) may lead to reduced water pressure and inefficient operation. Stick to the half inch size for best results.
