How many liters of gasoline are in 538 cm^3 if the density is .6080 g/mL

Question

 I don't know how to do this at all. Please help

Answer 1

538 cm³ equals 0.538 Liters.

 

Your question would make sense to me if it asked how many grams that was.

Answer 2

Hello, Laura,

Q:  How many liters of gasoline are in 538 cm³?    x Liters =538 cm³         Let X=unknown number of liters

 

Given:  1ml=.6080g      1Liter=1000ml   1ml= 1/1000 L=.001 L=1 cm³

 

Also, 1ml=1 cm³       You can set up a proportion:       1cm^{3             =} 538

                                                                             1/1000 L       x Liters

 

Cross multiply:    1*x= 538* (1/1000)          I will let you finish the problem  x=____________Liters
