Aliquid was measured to occupy a volume of 4.7\, ml4.7ml using a graduated cylinder, and its mass was determined using balances of different precision:
triple-beam balance (precision of 1 dec. pl.): m = 5.5\, gm=5.5g
analytical balance (precision of 3 dec. pl.): m = 5.461\, gm=5.461g
show that both mass-measurements, combined with the volume measurement, yield the same value for the density of the liquid.
