The density of liquid = 3000/4.
=750 kg/m3.

Sp. gravity = density of liquid = density of water.
= 750/1000.
= 0.75.

Specific gravity = weight/volume.
Weight = 3000.
Volume = 4 m^3.
= 750 kg/M^3.
= 750kg/m^3 /1000kg/m^3 = 0.75.

Density of liquid = m/v = 3000/4 = 750kg/m3

Density of liquid/density of water = 750/1000 = 0.75 = specific gravity.

Specific gravity = weight/volume.

Weight = 3000.
Volume = 4 m^3.
= 750 kg/M3.
= 750 /1000 = 0.75.

Option D will be correct because of density equal to mass/volume.

In this question, weight is given so mass will be 3000/9.81.

Specific weight has units as KG.
Specific mass has units as M*3.
But specific gravity has no units so 3 is the correct answer.

@All.

The specific gravity of Two liquids is 1.25 and 0.75 and Volume is 0.01.

Shortcut: since 0.75 doesn't have any unit the only unit less parameter in the options is specific gravity :)
