Answer:

1.641× 10^-3 pounds/ cubic inch

Step-by-step explanation:

Density= mass / volume

Mass of the material= 9 kilograms

Volume= 7 cubic feet

Density= 9/7= 1.286 kg/ ft^3

Density= 1.286 kg/ ft^3

To Convert to pounds per inch

1 kg/ ft^3 = 0.00128 pound / cubic inch

1.286 kg/ ft^3 = X pounds/ cubic inch

X=( 1.286 × 0.00128)

= 0.0016407087 pounds/ cubic inch

= 1.641× 10^-3 pounds/ cubic inch

Hence,this density in pounds per inch is 1.641× 10^-3 pounds/ cubic inch
