Chapter 17, Problem 1RQ
  1. 1. The specific gravity of gold is 19.3. Write a MATLAB program that will ask the user to input the mass of a cube of solid gold in units of kilograms and display the length of a single side of the cube in units of inches. The output should display a sentence like the following one, with the length formatted to two decimal places.

Sample Input/Output

Enter the mass of the cube [kilograms] : 0.4

The length of one side of the cube is 1.08 inches.
