Data:

density (d) = 0.93 g/mL
volume (v) = 3.7 L → 3700mL
mass (m) = ? (pounds)

Formula:

[tex]d = \frac{m}{v} [/tex]

Solving:


[tex]d = \frac{m}{v} [/tex]
[tex]0.93\:g/\diagup\!\!\!\!\!m\diagup\!\!\!\!\!L = \frac{m}{3700\:\diagup\!\!\!\!\!m\diagup\!\!\!\!\!L}[/tex]
[tex]m = 0.93*3700[/tex]
[tex]m = 3441\:g\to\:\boxed{m\approx7.58\:pounds}\end{array}}\qquad\quad\checkmark[/tex]

Answer:
[tex]\underline{7.58\:pounds\:of\:fat\:were\:removed\:from\:the\:patient}[/tex]
