To find the volume of the aluminum, you can use the formula for density:

\[ \text{Density} = \frac{\text{Mass}}{\text{Volume}} \]

Rearrange the formula to solve for volume:

\[ \text{Volume} = \frac{\text{Mass}}{\text{Density}} \]

Now, plug in the given values:

\[ \text{Volume} = \frac{250 \text{ grams}}{2.7 \text{ g/mL}} \]

\[ \text{Volume} \approx 92.59 \text{ mL} \]

Therefore, the volume of the piece of aluminum is approximately 92.59 mL.
