To calculate the volume of a 3D shape, such as a cylinder or sphere, you will need to use a specific formula. The formula for the volume of a cylinder is:

Volume of Cylinder = πr2h

where π (pi) is approximately equal to 3.14, r is the radius of the circular base of the cylinder, and h is the height of the cylinder.

For a sphere, the formula for the volume is:

Volume of Sphere = (4/3)πr3

where π (pi) is approximately equal to 3.14, and r is the radius of the sphere.

Simply plug in the values for the radius and height (if applicable), and solve the equation. Don't forget to include the units of measurement for your final answer.
