Volume is #7749.26# #cm^3#

Explanation:

Although the figure is faded, it appears to be a cylinder whose radius is #10# #cms.# and height is #18# #cms.# and is topped by a hemisphere of the same radius i.e. #10# #cms.#

Formula for the volume of cylinder is #pixxr^2xxh#, where #r# is radius and #h# is its height. Hence the volume is

#pixx10^2xx18=1800pi#

Formula for the volume of sphere is #4/3xxpixxr^3#, but as we have a hemisphere, it should be #2/3xxpixxr^3# and volume of hemisphere is

#2/3xxpixx10^3=2000/3xxpi#

and volume of shown object is sum of these i.e.

#(1800+2000/3)xxpi=7400/3xx3.1416=7749.26# #cm^3#

Note : AS the figure is faded, in case dimensions are different, you can use above method to calculate the volume of the object.
