Question

A weather balloon holds 2,600 cubic meters of helium. The density of helium is 0.1755 kilograms per cubic meter. How many kilograms of helium does the balloon contain?

Answer 1

The balloon contains 456.3 kg of helium

Explanation:

Density=mass / volume

Volume=2600 cubic meters of helium

Density=0.1755 kilograms per cubic meters

Mass=x

Find mass, x

Density=mass / volume

Mass=Density × volume

=0.1755 * 2600

=456.3 kg

The balloon contains 456.3 kg of helium
