Answer:

0.545g/cm OR 545kg/m(both answers are in cubic)

Step-by-step explanation:

first we have to find mass of liquid x

mass= density × volume

=25 cubic centimetre × 1.2g/cm

=3g

liquid y= density × volume

=30 cubic centimetre × 0.9g/cm

= 27g

next,we add the two masses

27+3

30g(mass of the whole mixture)

formula for finding density of the mixture

Mass1+ Mass2 ÷ Volume 1+ volume 2

30g ÷55 cubic centimetre

the answer will be a recurring decimal and as we know,we write decimals in 3 significant numbers so we round off

0.5454g/cm= 0.545g/cm and in SI units it's

545kg per cubic meter
