Iron has a density of 7.86 g/cm3 (1 cm3=1 mL). Calculate the volume (in dL) of a piece of iron having a mass of 3.93 kg . Note t
hat the density is provided in different units of volume and mass than the desired units of volume (dL) and the given units of mass (kg). You will need to express the density in kg/dL (1 cm3 = 1 mL) before calculating the volume for the piece of iron.
The answer should be 5 dL for the volume. This is how I proceeded: multiply 3.93 by 1000 to get your amount in g. Divide your result by 7.86 and you'll get 500. Now you have cm³ or mL...to get dL you have to divide by 100, so it should be 5
