Answer :

To calculate the volume of the apple, we use the formula that relates mass, density, and volume:

[tex]\[ \text{Volume} = \frac{\text{Mass}}{\text{Density}} \][/tex]

We have the mass of the apple as 85 grams, and the density of the apple as 0.68 grams per cubic centimeter (g/cm³).

By substituting the known values into the formula, we get:

[tex]\[ \text{Volume} = \frac{85}{0.68} \][/tex]

When you perform this division, the result is approximately:

[tex]\[ 124.99999999999999 \][/tex]

Since the volume in cubic centimeters should be a reasonable numerical value, and we're looking at the physical volume of an apple which cannot have an infinite decimal, we can round this number to two decimal places, assuming it is standard to report to the nearest hundredth for volume measurements. The volume of the apple is therefore approximately:

[tex]\[ 125 \text{ cm}^3 \][/tex]

Hence, the volume of the apple is 125 cubic centimeters.
