Answer
\( x = 65 \)
Solution
We are given the equation
\[
\frac{65\,\mathrm{kg}}{1\,\mathrm{L}} = \frac{x\,\mathrm{g}}{1\,\mathrm{cm}^3}.
\]
First, we convert the units to be consistent.
1 liter is equivalent to \(1000\,\mathrm{cm}^3\).
Also, \(65\,\mathrm{kg}\) is the same as \(65 \times 1000 = 65000\,\mathrm{g}\).
Now, the density in grams per cubic centimeter is
\[
\text{Density} = \frac{65000\,\mathrm{g}}{1000\,\mathrm{cm}^3} = 65\,\mathrm{\frac{g}{cm^3}}.
\]
Therefore, we have
\[
\frac{x\,\mathrm{g}}{1\,\mathrm{cm}^3} = 65\,\mathrm{\frac{g}{cm^3}},
\]
which implies
\[
x = 65.

To solve this problem, we need to understand the relationship between kilograms, grams, liters, and cubic centimeters. We know that 1 kg is equal to 1000 grams and 1 liter is equal to 1000 cubic centimeters (1 L = 1000 cm³). Therefore, we can convert the left side of the equation to grams per cubic centimeter: \[ \frac{65 \mathrm{~kg}}{1 \mathrm{~L}} = \frac{65 \times 1000 \mathrm{~g}}{1000 \mathrm{~cm}^{3}} = \frac{65000 \mathrm{~g}}{1000 \mathrm{~cm}^{3}} = \frac{65 \mathrm{~g}}{1 \mathrm{~cm}^{3}}. \] So, \( x = 65 \). Thus, \( x = 65 \mathrm{~g} \).
