so i can turn it into a number like 33 or just 3 to represent 1/3 or would i turn the rest into fractions too?

Basically, you multiply together [/FONT][FONT=Verdana,Arial,Helvetica]piRRh and a third of that quantity is the right answer. It doesn't matter whether you multiply by 1/3, divide by three, or multiply by .3333333333....., you are doing the same thing. Though, do one of the first two, cause on a calc it will give you the most accurate answer.

pi x the height x the radius squared X .33 will get the full answer?
sorry if i didn't answer your earlier question i just don't like posting info like that on public forums.
[FONT=Verdana,Arial,Helvetica] A quick way to enter it into your calc:
pi x the radius x the radius x the height / 3
hitting the buttons in that order will get you the right answer. [/FONT]
