    18.45 mm = 18.45 × 10⁻³ m
    V = (18.45 × 10⁻³)³
    V = 6.28 × 10⁻⁶ m³
    density = mass ÷ volume
    8.0 × 10³ = m ÷ 6.28 × 10⁻⁶
    m = 8.0 × 10³ × 6.28 × 10⁻⁶
    m = 0.0502 kg

  1. 18.45 mm = 18.45 × 10⁻³ m
    V = (18.45 × 10⁻³)³
    V = 6.28 × 10⁻⁶ m³
    density = mass ÷ volume
    8.0 × 10³ = m ÷ 6.28 × 10⁻⁶
    m = 8.0 × 10³ × 6.28 × 10⁻⁶
    m = 0.0502 kg
