Diamond volume?
« on: November 25, 2024, 11:28:40 AM »
The density of a diamond is 3.51gr/sm3
1 carat is 200 milligrams
What is the volume of a 0.750 carat diamond?
My answer is 0.042
Am i right ?
Thanks 🙏

With some assumptions it is not completely wrong ;)

0.042 of what? Units are (almost) always important part of the answer.

And what is sm3? Do you mean cm3?

Finally, all input data have three significant digits, so your answer should have three significant digits too. 0.042 has only two.
