  1. 21 cubic inches    
  2. 63 cubic inches    
  3. 66 cubic inches

The correct answer is: 66 cubic inches


    Volume = fraction numerator 1 over denominator 3 end fraction pi r to the power of 2 end exponent h
    equals fraction numerator 1 over denominator 3 end fraction cross times pi cross times 3 to the power of 2 end exponent cross times 7
    equals 21 pi
    ∼ 66 inches3
