Answer:

do your own work guy
I believe the answer is 7,841 ft3
significant digits 3800 cubic feet [ only 2 significant digits in the multiplicands means there can only be two significant figures in the answer]
V = (d/2)?πh, where V is volume, d is diameter, π is 3.14, and h is height. V = (16ft / 2)? × 3.14 × 39 ft V = 64 ft? × 122.46 ft V = 7,837.4 ft? ===========
