Formula
----------------------------------------
Volume = πr²h

----------------------------------------
Find Radius
----------------------------------------
Radius = Diameter ÷ 2
Radius = 14 ÷ 2
Radius = 7 feet

----------------------------------------
Find Capacity
----------------------------------------
Capacity = πr²h
Capacity = π x (7)² x 3.5
Capacity = 538.78 ft³

----------------------------------------
Find 75% of Capacity
----------------------------------------
75% of 538.78 ft³
= 0.75 x 538.78
= 404.09 ft³ (nearest hundredth)


----------------------------------------
Answer: 404.09 ft³
