anonymous · Answer

density = mass / volume

nincompoop · Answer

know the formula of density and then use that information to solve for mass

anonymous · Answer

So I know the density and the volume correct?

nincompoop · Answer

do you?

abmon98 · Answer

denisty=mass/volume
 0.8731=mass/3249
mass=2836.7kg

nincompoop · Answer

@Abmon98 you have a habit of giving answers and not letting people think and figure things out

anonymous · Answer

All I need is to know how to work it out and get the answer...and he tells me how to do that which helps me get to the test faster. Because of him I've known what to do on the last two tests and gotten a B and an A. So don't bag on him
