holds 40 g water
that is volume = 40 cm^3
since density of water is about 1 g/cm^3
mass = 20 + 40*density of Hg
density of Hg = 13.5 g/cm^3
so
mass = 20 + 40*13.5 grams
An empty bottle weighs 20g and 60g when filled completely with water.What will it weigh when filled completely with mercury?
20÷60=0.3

by the way, what we worked with here was mass, not weight.
If this is a Physics course, your book should do mass in kg and weight in Newtons or mass in g and weight in dynes.
weight = mass * acceleration of gravity.
mass is the same on another planet, weight is different.
