Answer:
no
Step-by-step explanation:
The heights of the two containers are the same, so we can compare their volumes by comparing their base areas.
<h3>Cuboid</h3>
The base area is given by ...
A = LW
A = (13 in)(12 in) = 156 in²
<h3>Cylinder</h3>
The base area is that of a circle of radius 7 inches:
A = πr²
A = π(7 in)² = 49π in² ≈ 153.9 in²
The area of the cuboid is greater, so its volume is greater that that of the cylinder. Not all of the water will fit into the bucket.

<em>Additional comment</em>
For <em>any shape</em> having a uniform cross section, the volume is given by the formula ...
V = Bh
where B is the area of the cross section, and h is the height perpendicular to that cross section.
