First you have to convert your volume of 8.3m^3 to cm^3.

8.3m^3 x (1000cm^3 / 1 m^3)

what is in the ( ) is the conversion factor

then you take 8300cm^3 x (0.001kg / 1 cm^3) =

8.3kg

that is the dimentional analysis version

of course you can visualize this too:

seeing that 0.001kg for every 1 cm^3 and which is the same as 1kg for ever 1m^3 , then you can see the 8.3kg
