Would that be for volume 3,785 mL?

blazeryder · Answer

So to find the volume in ml you need to multiply 3.785 by 1000 and you would get 3,785. So you did get the correct answer for the volume of the water in ml!

Do you have any idea on how to get answer for Mass in grams?

kj4uts · Answer

Ok thanks. Now for the second one I am confused because it says 1 gram a mL and their are 3,785, so then wouldn't 1 * 3.785 = 3,785 again? Thank does not make sense.
