Question

The mass of a paper-clip is 0.50 g and the density of its material is 8.0g/cm'. The total volume of

a number of clips is 20 cm.
How many paper-clips are there?​

Answer 1

320 paper clips

Step-by-step explanation:

mass = volume × density = 20cm³ × 8g/cm³ = 160g

mass of 1 paper clip = 0.50g

mass of x paper clips = 160g

x = 160/0.50 = 320
