Find the King's Pure Gold Crown - Density Challenge

The king seeks a new crown made entirely of pure gold, without any other metals or plating. He has four candidates, each with a volume of 60 cm³ and different masses. To determine which crown is pure gold, we need to calculate the density of each. Given the density of gold is 19.3 g/cm³, compare the densities of the candidates: A=680.4 g, B=534 g, C=1,158 g, and D=1,284 g. Can you help the king identify the crown that meets his standards for purity?
