Answer:


0.01132 g/mm^(3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Density,
\rho=\frac {m}{v}

Where m is the mass of the object and v is the volume of the same object

Given the dimensions, we can make them in mm hence 45 mm by 52 mm by 60 mm

Volume=45*52*60= 140400 mm^{3}

Density,
\rho=\frac {1590}{140400}=0.011324786 g/mm^(3)\approx 0.01132 g/mm^(3)
