Consider tha the density is calculated by using the following formula:


D=(M)/(V)

D is the density, M is the mass and V the volume. In this case, you have;

M = 6 g

V = 2 in x 6 in x 3 in = 36 in^3

Replace the previous values of the parameters into the formula for D:


D=(6g)/(36in^3)\approx0.17(g)/(in^3)

Hence, the density of the given substance is approximately 0.17 g/in^3
