    Specific gravity of other fluid =.854 (Approx)

    Explanation:

    Given:

    Mass of water = 35 g

    Mass of filled bottle with water = 98.44 g

    Mass of filled bottle with fluid = 89.22 g

    Computation:

    Mass of water = 98.44g - 35g = 63.44g

    Density of water = 1000 g/L

    Volume of bottle = 63.44/1000 = 0.06344L

    Mass of other liquid = 89.22g - 35g = 54.22g

    Density of other liquid = 54.22g/0.06344L = 854.665826 g/L

    Water has a specific gravity = 1

    So, specific gravity of other fluid

    1000 / 854.665826 = 1 / specific gravity of other fluid

    Specific gravity of other fluid =.854 (Approx)
