A builder purchases 600 bricks for a new residential construction. The dimensions of each brick are 5.1 cm by 10.2 cm by 20.3 cm

Blababa [14]

<h3>Answer:</h3>

1165.83 kg

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

The total mass is the product of volume of one brick, the number of bricks, and the density. For this problem, it is convenient to use dimensions in meters.

$(0.051\,m)(0.102\,m)(0.203\,m)(600)\dfrac{1840\,kg}{m^3}=(0.6336036\,m^3)\dfrac{1840\,kg}{m^3}\\\\=1165.83\,kg$
