Given : 

Lateral Surface area of cylinder = 3168 cm2

Height = 48 cm

Formula Used : 

Voulme of Cylinder = πr2h

Curved Surface area od cylinder = 2πrh

Calculation : 

⇒ 2πrh = 3168

⇒ 2 × 22/7 × r × 48 = 3168

⇒ r = 3168 × 7/(2 × 22 × 48)

⇒ r = 22176/2112 

⇒ r = 10.5 cm

Volume = 22/7 × 10.5 × 10.5 × 48 = 16632 cm3

∴ The correct answer is 16632 cm3.
