The best and most correct answer among the choices your question about density provided is the second choice or letter B. 0.39 goldfish per cubic feet. The solution for the problem is:

mass = 22
volume = 56 (ft)^2

density = mass/volume = 22/56(ft)^2 = 0.39 goldfish per cubic feet.

I hope it has come to your help.
