The density of the milk is 1.035 g/mL.

Explanation:

Density is determined dividing the mass of a substance by the volume it occupies.

density = mass (g) / volume (mL)

The mass, in this case, can be obtained subtracting the mass of the empity drinking glass (268.5 g) from the mass of the glass filled with milk (436.2 g).

density = (436.2 - 268.5) g / 162 mL

density = 1.035 g/mL
