Question

A gold nugget has a density of 38.6g/cm3 and a mass of 270.2. what is its volume?​

Answer 1

270.2/38.6 = 7

Volume is 7.

Answer 2

Density is given by the equation D=m/V, were D is density, m is mass in grams, and V is volume in cubic centimeters.

In this problem, we have density and we have mass so we can plug into the equation and solve for V.

38.6=270.2/V

*Multiply both sides by V*

38.6V=270.2

*Divide both sides by 38.6*

V=7

The volume of the gold nugget is 7cm3.

Hope this helps!!
