Answer:

The volume of the cylindrical trash can is 2034.7 cubic inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Height of cylinder = 18  inches

Diameter, d = 12 inches

Radius, r =

[tex]r = \dfrac{d}{2} = \dfrac{12}{2} = 6\text{ inches}[/tex]

Volume of cylinder =

[tex]V = \pi r^2 h\\V = (3.14)(6)^2(18)\\V = 2034.72\text{ cubic inches}\\V \approx 2034.7\text{ cubic inches}[/tex]

Thus, the volume of the cylindrical trash can is 2034.7 cubic inches.
