Answer

cylinder container

Work Step by Step

Using $V=lwh,$ with dimensions $8\times5\times3,$ then the volume of the box is \begin{array}{l}\require{cancel} V=lwh \\ V=8(5)(3) \\ V=120 .\end{array} Using $V=\pi r^2h,$ with $r=3$ and $h=6,$ then the volume of the cylinder is \begin{array}{l}\require{cancel} V=\pi r^2h \\ V=\pi (3)^2(6) \\ V=54\pi \\ V\approx169.65 .\end{array} Hence, the $\text{ cylinder container }$ holds more ice cream.
