    To determine the mass of gasoline in the the tank, we need data on the density of gasoline. We multiply this value to the capacity of the gasoline tank. We do as follows:

    Mass = 13 gallons (0.0038 m^3 / 1 gallons) (732.22 kg/m^3) = 36.17 kg or 361771.67 g

    36.17 kg (2.2 lb / 1 kg) = 79.58 lb
