Given the table below which lists the masses and volumes of several pieces of the same type of metal.<span>
From the table the ratio of the mass to the volume of the metal of mass 34.932 is 34.932 / 4.1 = 8.52 </span><span>the ratio of the mass to the volume of the metal of mass 47.712 is 47.712 / 5.6 = 8.52 </span><span>the ratio of the mass to the volume of the metal of mass 61.344 is 61.344 / 7.2 = 8.52 </span><span><span>the ratio of the mass to the volume of the metal of mass 99.684 is 99.684 / 11.7 = 8.52
Since the ratio of the various masses to the volume of the metals is the same, so there is a relationship between the mass and the volume of the piece of metal.
If the volume of a piece of metal is 15.3 cubic cm, then the mass of the metal is given by 15.3 * 8.52 = 130.356 grams.
