First: 226.19 in³

Second: 176.71 in³

1) Considering that these containers are cylinders we can find the volume by using this formula:


\begin{gathered} V_{\text{cylinder}}=\pi\cdot r^2\cdot h \\ \end{gathered}

2) Plugging the red one's data. Considering that 6, and 5 inches refer to the Diameter, then D=2r R= D/2 then the radi of those are


\begin{gathered} V_{\text{RED}}=\pi\cdot r^2\cdot h \\ V_{\operatorname{Re}d}=\pi\cdot(3)^2\cdot8 \\ V_{\text{red}}=72\pi\text{ }\approx226.19in^3 \\ \\ V_{\text{BLACK}}=\pi\cdot((5)/(2))^2\cdot9 \\ V_{\text{BLACK}}=(225)/(4)\pi\text{ in³ }\approx176.71in^{^(3)} \end{gathered}

3) Hence, the answer is The Volume of the First container is approximately 226.19 in ³ and the Second one is approximately 176.71 in³
