Solution

Given volume of kerosene oil = 6 litres= $6 \times 1000 c m^{3}$
Mass = 5.28 kg
=5.28 $\times$ 1000 g
(a) density = $\frac{M a s s}{v o l u m e}$
$\frac{85.28 \times 1000}{6 \times 1000} \frac{g}{c m^{3}} = 0.88 g / c m^{3}$
(b) In SI system Density = $\frac{0.88}{1000} \times 100 \times 100 \times 100$
$= 880 k g / m^{3}$
