    We are given with the mass while we are asked for the amount of volume. Thus, we must need an information on the density. From literature, the density of human fat is 0.918 g/cm³. Convert grams to lb by the conversion that 1,000 g = 2.2 lbs.

    Density = 0.918 g/cm³ * (2.2 lbs/1,000 g) = 0.0020196 lb/cm³

    Volume = Mass/Density = 12.2 lb / 0.0020196 lb/cm³

    Volume = 6,040.8 cm³
