Pls hurry

Jenny accidentally drops her ring into a graduated cylinder. If the ring has a mass of 5 grams
and the water level in the cylinder rises from 5 ml to 7.5 ml, determine the density of the ring.
(Density = Mass ÷ Volume)
2 g/ml
50 g/ml
15 g/ml
0.5 g/ml

2 g/ml, the mass is stated as 5 grams and the difference between 7.5 and 5 is 2.5. you divide 5 by 2.5 to get a density of 2 g/ml
