Explanation:

the density of an object is always

mass / volume

now, what units does your teacher want us to use ? there is no information.

so, I will simply use

grams / cm³

as the volume of cm×cm×cm is cm³.

the volume is

length × width × height =

= 3.7 × 2.4 × 2.1 = 18.648 cm³

the density is then

4.82/18.648 g/cm³ = 0.258472758... g/cm³
