38.50 cubic inches
48.08 cubic inches
92.46 cubic inches
192.33 cubic inches

Answer 1

Formula for volume of cylinder is pi* r^2 * h. 3.14 * (3.5/2)^2 * 5 = 48.08 cubic inches

Answer 2

3.14xradius^2xheight

radius=1/2 the diameter=3.5/2=1.75

3.14x1.75^2x5

1.75^2=3.0625

3.14x3.0625x5

3.14x3.0625=9.61625

9.61625x5=48.08125

volume=48.08
