Question

A carpenter has two pieces of wood. He wants to find the density of each piece.

Answer 1

Answer:

The wood from the birch tree has a greater density than the wood that came from the cypress tree.

Step-by-step explanation:

Density formula: mass/volume

2 times 4 times 3=24 meters for the volume

Birch tree: 16/24 is the density

3 times 5 times 2=30 meters for the volume

Cypress tree: 15.3/30 is the density

If we convert the densities of each piece of wood to decimal it will be easier to determine which has a greater density.

So birch tree: 0.6 repeating is the density

Cypress tree: 0.51 is the density

Therefore the wood that came from the birch tree has a greater density than the wood that came from the cypress tree.
