Question: A 4 4 2 gram, 4 7 . 6 m m diameter by 9 8 . 6 m m long clay specimen was tested in

A 442 gram, 47.6mm diameter by 98.6mm long clay specimen was tested in a triaxial test. After failure, the entire specimen was dried to a constant mass of 343 grams. Using either an assumed specific gravity of 2.531 or assuming saturation (whichever is more appropriate), FIND the wet density in kgm3(0 decimal places).
