Answer:
[tex]\boxed {\tt 5 \ g/cm^3}[/tex]
Explanation:
Density can be found by dividing the mass by the volume. Use the following formula.
[tex]d=\frac{m}{v}[/tex]
The mass of the paper clip is 15 grams.
The volume of the paper clip is 3 cubic centimeters.
[tex]m= 15 \ g\\v= 3 \ cm^3[/tex]
Substitute the values into the formula.
[tex]d=\frac{15 \ g}{3 \ cm^3}[/tex]
Divide.
[tex]d= 5 \ g/cm^3[/tex]
The density of the paper clip is 5 grams per cubic centimeters, or 5 g\cm³
