Answer:

  1.2 t/m³

Step-by-step explanation:

1 tonne is 1 Mg = 10⁶ g

1 m³ is (100 cm)³ = 10⁶ cm³

The conversion is ...

  (1.2 g/cm³) · (1 t)/(10⁶ g) · (10⁶ cm³)/(1 m³)

  = 1.2(10⁶)/(10⁶) t/m³

  = 1.2 t/m³

For this conversion, the numerical value does not change. Megagrams per cubic meter is the same ratio as grams per cubic centimeter.
