A moist soil sample with a weight of $700$ grams has a diameter of $2\mathrm{.}40$ inches and a length of $4\mathrm{.}80$ inches. The specific gravity of the soil solids is $2\mathrm{.}73.$ A portion of the sample was tested for water content, the following data apply:

Wtare $+$ moist $=69\mathrm{.}0gr,$ Wtare $+$ dry $=62\mathrm{.}8gr,$ Wtare $=36\mathrm{.}8gr$

Use basic soil relationships to answer the following:

What is the dry unit weight $(l\frac{b}{f}t3$ with one decimal place$)?$
