Answer

$113\;\rm N\cdot m^2/C$

Work Step by Step

We know that the net electric flux through the closed surface is given by $$\Phi=\dfrac{Q_{in}}{\epsilon_0}$$ And the cylinder includes only the 1 nC charge inside it. So that the net electric flux through the cylinder is given by $$\Phi=\dfrac{ 1\times 10^{-9}}{8.85\times 10^{-12}}$$ $$\Phi=\color{red}{\bf 113}\;\rm N\cdot m^2/C$$
