I will fan and give madals ...need a bit of quick help...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So I had this question... If a sample of 26 marbles has a mass of 55 grams and a volume of 22 milliliters, what is the density of that sample?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I got this answer... 55 / 22 = 2.5

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Am I correct?

OpenStudy (paki):

density is mass per unit volume so divide mass by volume (the number of marbles has no bearing on the problem) density = 55/22 = 2.5 grams/milliliter

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Ok so I was right... Because then this question came by... If 13 marbles were measured instead of 26, what would happen to the value of density?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

And i need help.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

It is kind of a science/ math mix but more math.

OpenStudy (paki):

tell me...?

OpenStudy (paki):

you mean like this... tell me... If a sample of 13 marbles ((instead of 26)) has a mass of 55 grams and a volume of 22 milliliters, what is the density of that sample?

OpenStudy (paki):

@Macy86

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the 26 were 55 grams. the 13 would be half right?

OpenStudy (paki):

your question is incomplete.. .are you comparing it with the previous one or what....?
