Answer:

The volume of the sample is
10\ cm^3

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that,

Frank has a sample of steel that weighs 80 grams

The density of his sample of steel is
d=8\ g/cm^3

We have to find the volume of the sample. Density of an object is defined as mass per unit volume i. e.


d=(m)/(V)


V=(m)/(d)


V=(80\ g)/(8\ gm/cm^3)


V=10\ cm^3

Hence, the volume of the sample is
10\ cm^3
