Find the volume of oil (in liters) weighing 2.4 tons, oil density 0.8 g / cm3.

Initial data: m (oil mass) = 2.4 t = 2.4 * 10 ^ 3 kg.

Reference data: according to the condition ρ (oil density) = 0.8 g / cm ^ 3 = 800 kg / m ^ 3.

The volume, which is occupied by 2.4 tons of oil, is calculated by the formula: V = m / ρ.

Let’s do the calculation:

V = 2.4 * 10 ^ 3/800 = 3 m ^ 3.

Let’s convert the resulting value into liters (1 l = 1 dm ^ 3 = 10 ^ -3 m ^ 3): V = 3/10 ^ -3 m ^ 3 = 3000 l.

Answer: The volume of 2.4 tons of oil is 3000 liters.
