Answer:

The answer is 9.76 mL

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a substance when given the density and mass can be found by using the formula


volume = (mass)/(density) \\

From the question

mass of gold = 200 g

density = 20.5 g/mL

It's volume is


volume = (200)/(20.5) \\ = 9.7560975609...

We have the final answer as

9.76 mL

Hope this helps you
