Round your answer to the nearest tenth.

Answer 1

To find the density of the brick, we need to divide its mass by its volume:

density = mass / volume

Plugging in the values given in the problem, we get:

density = 2,022.75 g / 1,064.5 cm³

Simplifying the division, we get:

density = 1.8996 g/cm³

Rounding to the nearest tenth, we get:

density ≈ 1.9 g/cm³

Therefore, the density of the brick is approximately 1.9 grams per cubic centimeter (g/cm³).
