What is the mass, in metric tons, of a cube of gold that is 43.8cm on each side? (1 metric ton = 1000 kg, d = 19.3 g/cm3)

v = length x width x
height

v = 43.8cm x 43.8cm x 43.8cm

v= 84,027.672
cm3

D = m/84,027.672cm3

19.3g/cm3 =
m/84,027.672cm3

19.3 x 84,027.672 = m

mass =
1,621,734.0696g

mass = 1.62 metric tons
