Hey there! I'm happy to help!

To find the volume of a cylinder, you multiply the base by the height.

First, we find the base. The base is a circle. To find the area of a circle, you square the radius and multiply it by pi (we will use 3.14). The radius is half the diameter.

6.5/2=3.25

We square this.

3.25²=10.5625

And multiply by 3.14

10.5625(3.14)=33.16625

Now we multiply this by the height.

33.16625(12)=397.995

Therefore, the volume of this silo is 397.995 cubic meters.

Have a wonderful day! :D
