Answer:

11.1 cm

Explanation:

First we convert 58.1 pounds into grams:

  • 58.1 lb * [tex]\frac{453.592g}{1lb}[/tex] = 26353.69 g

Then we calculate the volume of the gold cube, using the given density:

26353.69 g ÷ 19.3 g/mL = 1365.48 mL

  • 1365.48 mL is equal to 1365.48 cm³.

With the volume of a cube we can calculate the side length:

  • Length = ∛(1365.48 cm³) = 11.1 cm
