.
Step-by-step explanation:
Density of an object is defined as the mass occupied per unit volume. “Density” is represented by “ρ”. Mathematically, \rho=\frac{m}{v}ρ=
v
m
where, “m" mass of an object and "v" is volume of an object.
Given that,
Dimensions of the block are 20 cm, 5 cm and 10 cm.
\text { Volume of the block is } l \times b \times h Volume of the block is l×b×h
\text { Volume of the block is } 20 \times 5 \times 10 Volume of the block is 20×5×10
\text { Volume of the block is } 1000 \mathrm{cm}^{3} \text { . } Volume of the block is 1000cm

.
Mass of the block is 2700 g.
Substitute the given values in \rho=\frac{m}{v}ρ=
v
m
to find density of a block.
\rho=\frac{2700}{1000}ρ=
1000
2700
\rho=2.7 \mathrm{g} / \mathrm{cm}^{3}ρ=2.7g/cm

\text { "Density" of the given granite block is } 2.7 \mathrm{g} / \mathrm{cm}^{3} "Density" of the given granite block is 2.7g/cm
