Volume formula for cylinder
[tex]\pi \: {r}^{2} h[/tex]
replace the letters with the correct number
[tex]\pi \: {2}^{2} \times 3[/tex]
solve the exponent
[tex] {2}^{2} = 2 \times 2 = 4[/tex]
[tex]\pi4 \times 3 = 12\pi[/tex]
Every time you are finding a volume for any 3d shape, you have to cube it.
[tex]12\pi \: {cm}^{3} [/tex]
