If the box was solid,
V%5Bs%5D=20%2A15%2A10=3000cc
Since it's not, subtract out the volume of the air space, by subtracting 1 cm from each side of each dimension.
V%5Ba%5D=18%2A13%2A8=1872cc
So then,
V=V%5Bs%5D-V%5Ba%5D=3000-1872=1128cc
Convert the volume to cubic decimeters using,
10cm=1dm
10%5E3=1000cc=1cd
So then,
1872%281%2F1000%29=1.872cd
And finally,
m=rho%2AV
m=1%281.872%29=1.872kg
