A block of steel has a volume of 3040 cm³ and a density of 7.95 g/cm³. What is its weight?

To find the weight of the steel block, we can use the formula that relates weight, volume, and density:

Weight = Density × Volume

We know the following:

• Volume = 3040 cm³
• Density = 7.95 g/cm³

Now we simply plug the values into the formula:

Weight = 7.95 g/cm³ × 3040 cm³

Calculating this gives:

Weight = 24168 g

To convert grams to kilograms (since weight is often expressed in kilograms), we divide by 1000:

Weight = 24168 g ÷ 1000 = 24.168 kg

Therefore, the weight of the block of steel is approximately 24.17 kg.
