Explanation / Answer

1 pound =453.592 grams

76 pound = 34473 g

Price of 1 g of Hg = $153.50/34473 g = $ 0.0044

d=m/v

v=m/d

Volume of Hg = 34473g/13.534 g cm-3 =2,547.14 cm-3

Price of 1 cubic cm = $153.50/2547.14 = $0.0602

1 cubic cm = 0.061 cubic inch

Volume of Hg = 0.061x 2547.14 cubic inch =155.43 cubic inch

Price of 1 cubic inch = $153.50/155.43 cubic inch = $ 0.987
