density= m/v   ... thus substitute in your values and you get density= (41)/(5)... which basically is equally to 8.2

Density can be calculated using the following rule:
Density = mass/volume

We are given that:
mass = 41 grams
volume = 5 cm^3

Substitute with the givens in the above equation to get the density as follows:
Density = 41/5 = 8.2 g/cm^3

Based on the above calculations:
answer : 8.2
units : g/cm^3
