Density is given as mass / volume.

Mass is the sphere is 100 g.

Volume of the sphere = (pi∗r3)∗4/3

Therefore, Density is 100/(792/7)g/cm3

Which gives: density = 0.883838 g/cm3

If you want to change the units to kg per cubic metres, then we need to divide this value by 1000( for g to kg) and multiply by 100 * 100 * 100 (for cm to m).

This makes the density to be 883.83 kg/m3
