9 salads = 2 slices of pepperoni pizza
22 slices of pepperoni pizza = 27 Sonic cokes
Ex. 1) What number of Big Macs equal 365.4 salads?
Ex. 2) How many sonic cokes do you have to drink to equal 11 salads?Slide4

Density
Is the ratio of mass per unit of volume. How much matter is packed into a given amount of space
Density = mass/volume
D= m/vSlide29
The Density of a substance stays
regardless of the size of the sample. For example: if you cut a block of copper in half, you have decreased
both
the mass and volume, the ratio of the 2 stays the same. This is called an
Intensive
Physical Property.Slide30
