Question 1100222: Please help me solve this problem.
A granite block in the shape of a right rectangular
prism has dimensions 30 centimeters by
40 centimeters by 50 centimeters. The block has a
density of 2.8 grams per cubic centimeter. What is
the mass of the block, in grams? (Density is mass
per unit volume.)
My solution: 1.) Multiply 50*40*30 to get the volume of the prism.
2.) Then multiply the answer by 2.8 to get the density.
3.) So, my answer was 168,000
I'm not sure if i'm right. Could please check if i made any mistakes? Feel free to correct me if i'm wrong.
