Diameter of cylinder = 12 inches
radius of cylinder (r) = 1/2 x diameter = 6 inches
Height of cylinder (h) = 1.25 feet
We can convert feet to inches using the relation: 1 foot = 12 inches
So, 1.25 feet = 12 x 1.25 inches
=> 15 inches
The volume of the cylinder is given by:
[tex]V\text{ = }\pi r^2\text{ h}[/tex]Upon substituting the values of r and h
[tex]\begin{gathered} V\text{ = 3.14 x 6 x 6 x 15} \\ \\ V=\text{ }1695.6\text{ cubic inches} \\ V=1696inches^3 \end{gathered}[/tex]
