I think this answer is true only in the case of water not for other fluid.

Density of liquid = it's specific gravity * 1 gram/m^3.
= 1000kg/m^3.
= 1000kg/m^3.

Density of water = 1000kg/m3.
The specific gravity of water = 1.
How is 1 numerically equal to 1000.
Answer = False.
The specific gravity of water = 1.

Specific Gravity and relative density are not the same but, numerically equal.
So, Answer is B.
So, Answer is B.

@Brij kishor. According to your answer, there should be proportional not numerically equal.

I agree with Rn Singh. Both are numerically same and answer is correct.

Specific gravity says that's used fluid is how time in weight of tested fluid(water).
So it can't say that the density May equal to the specific gravity.
So answer will be B correct.
So it can't say that the density May equal to the specific gravity.
So answer will be B correct.

Why to discuss water only?
Fluid name is not mentioned. What about other fluids?
So it must be false right?

Unit should be gram/cm^3.

Sg has no unit.
That's why The specific gravity of pure water is taken as unity.
