Best answer:

Answer by climberguy12
first convert dm to cm by multiplying by 10. so its 4.5x6.5x16. all in cm.

to get volume, just multiply them all together.

turns out to be 468 cm^3

d=m/v

19.3=m/468
m=9032.4 grams
m=9.0324 kilograms

make it a good day

    4.5(6.5)(16) = 468 cm^3

    19.3 g/cm^3 (468 cm^3) = 9032.4 g = 9.0324 kilograms

    lostmind.. here it is

    1.6 dm = 16 cm
    Volume = 4.5 cm x 6.5 cm x 16 cm
    Volume = 468 cu cm

    1000 g = kg

    Mass = dinsity x Volume
    Mass = 19.3 g/cm³ x 1kg/1000g x 468 cu cm
    =================================
    Ans::Mass = 9.0324 kgs
    =================================

    hope this helps
