Question: A 4 2 7 gram, 5 1 . 5 m m diameter by 1 0 3 . 9 m m long clay specimen was tested

A 427 gram, 51.5mm diameter by 103.9mm long clay specimen was tested in a triaxial test. After failure, the entire specimen was dried to a constant mass of 345 grams. Using either an assumed specific gravity of 2.612 or assuming saturation (whichever is more appropriate), FIND the voids ratio (3 decimal places).
