To find the volume of Frank's sample of steel, we can use the formula for volume in terms of weight (mass) and density:
[tex]\[ \text{Volume} = \frac{\text{Weight}}{\text{Density}} \][/tex]
Given:
- Weight of the sample = 80 grams
- Density of the sample = 8 grams per cubic centimeter (g/cm³)
Step-by-step solution:
1. Identify the formula for volume:
[tex]\[ \text{Volume} = \frac{\text{Weight}}{\text{Density}} \][/tex]
2. Substitute the given values into the formula:
[tex]\[ \text{Volume} = \frac{80 \text{ grams}}{8 \text{ g/cm}^3} \][/tex]
3. Perform the division:
[tex]\[ \text{Volume} = 10 \text{ cm}^3 \][/tex]
So, the volume of Frank's sample of steel is [tex]\( 10 \)[/tex] cubic centimeters (cm³).
