I have a problem that i need help with. i am having serious trouble converting it accurately.

I need to calculate the volume ( g/m3) of a 25,000 tonne iceberg (1 tonne = 1,000 kg). The trick is that i need to convert the measurements i have. The density of ice is .917 g/cm3.

I know the formula is v=m/d but getting all the right units of measurements and their values right is the hard part. Please help!

Thanks,

Joe
 
Hint: Set things up so the units cancel.
