Studdy Solution
STEP 1
Assumptions1. The given measurement is . We need to simplify the unit if possible
STEP 2
First, we need to understand the unit of the given measurement. It's a ratio of mass times volume (grams times cubic centimeters) to mass times area (grams times square centimeters).
STEP 3
To simplify the unit, we can cancel out the common terms in the numerator and the denominator.
STEP 4
The grams (g) in the numerator and denominator cancel out.
STEP 5
Next, we can simplify the cubic centimeters (cm^3) and square centimeters (cm^2) by subtracting the exponent in the denominator from the exponent in the numerator.
STEP 6
The cubic centimeters (cm^3) and square centimeters (cm^2) simplify to centimeters (cm).
The simplified unit for the given measurement is cm (centimeters).
