Answer:

Volume is the amount of space an object occupies. To determine the volume of any rectangular object, multiply the measurements of length, width, and height.

Volume = Length × Width × Height

Calculate the volume of this rectangular object.

Length = 3 cm

Width = 3 cm

Height = 12 cm

Volume = l × w × h

Volume = 3 cm × 3 cm × 12 cm

Volume = 108 cm3

Notice that the units for volume are cubic centimeters (cm3).

So 8 ÷ 25 = 0.32 and the units would be g/ cm3 . Other units of density could be g/L or g/ml or mg/ cm3 or kg/ m3 and the list could go on and on. Any unit of mass divided by any unit of volume.
