B Correct answer
Explanation

Volume of a cylinder = pi * r^2 * h. Here r = 6, h = 15. Volume = pi * 6^2 * 15 = pi * 36 * 15 = 540pi.

AI explanation

Using the volume of a right circular cylinder formula, V = πr^2h, we substitute the radius of 6 inches and height of 15 inches. This gives the calculation π * 6^2 * 15, which simplifies to π * 36 * 15. Multiplying 36 by 15 results in a volume of 540π cubic inches.
