The edge of a cube is measured using a vernier callipers. [ 9 divisions of the main scale is equal to 10 divisions of the vernier scale and 1 main scale dividsion is 1 mm ]. The main scale division reading is 10 and 1st division of vernier scale was found to be coinciding with the main scale. The mass of the cube is 2.736 g . Calculate the density in g//cm^3 upto correct significant figures.

The main scale of a vernier calliper reads in mm and its vernier scale is divided into 8 divisions, which coincides with 7 divisions of the main scale. It was also observed that, when the two jaws are brought in contact, the zero of the vernier scale coincided with the zero of the main scale. The edge length of a cube is measured using this vernier calliper. The main scale reads 12 mm and 2^("nd") division of the vernier scale coincides with the main scale. The edge length (in mm) of the cube is
