The formula for density is density = mass / volume.
d = m / v
1 pound = 456 grams and mL are the same as centimeters cubed.
So 4.46lb x 456g = 2033.76g
2033.76g / 181mL = 11.2cm3
d= 11.2 g / cm3
That's probably wrong, but what the hey, I gave it a go. Hope this helps.

That sounds suspiciously like a homework assignment. If I provide you with the answer I deprive you of the opportunity and satisfaction of learning to do it for yourself.
Incidentally, when I went to school (with T Rex), this was a physics problem.

4.46 lb = 2025 gm
2025/181 = 11.19 g/cc

I don't have my metric/imperial tables handy.
