Given:

The mass of the sample is,


m=3\text{ kg}

The volume is


V=250\text{ cm}^3

To find:

The density

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume is,


\begin{gathered} V=250\text{ cm}^3 \\ =250*10^(-6)\text{ m}^3 \end{gathered}

The density is,


\begin{gathered} d=(m)/(V) \\ =(3)/(250*10^(-6)) \\ =12000\text{ kg/m}^3 \\ =12*10^3\text{ kg/m}^3 \end{gathered}

Hence, the density is


12*10^3\text{ kg/m}^3
