The same physical quantity, such as density, can be reported using different units. Above, you found that water has a density of 1000 kg/m^3 = 1 g/cm^3. Because the density of water must be the same regardless of what units you use to measure it, you can conclude that an object whose density is 1 kg/m^3 must be less dense than water. In other words, 1 kg/m^3 is less than 1 g/cm^3. If you had three different objects with densities of 1 kg/m^3, 1 g/m^3, and 1 kg/mm^3, which object would be the most dense? Rank the given densities from most to least dense. To rank items as equivalent, overlap them.
