divide 100 by 13.54, and you get milliliters. g/ml stands for Grams per Milliliter.
The result is about 7.4ml, which is about 130 times heavier then water. Keep in mind, Mercury is absorbed through your skin, and oxidizes even in air (over time) and will corrode virtually any metal it contacts - this creates merury salts that are highly poisonous when inhaled and extremely toxic if injected. Elemental mercury, when not in contact with anything reactive (say just sitting an an open glass jar with air will not harm you, but any dust in the air touching the mercury will create vapors that are dangerous. Good to know, wear gloves, and allow ventilation. Lead is (or at least was) a safe metal for storage of mercury, but glass or plastic is a choice. Be careful around that stuff, mercury poisoning cannot be undone, and has extremely limited treatment.

Let's see. If one ml has a mass of 13.6 g. how many ml would have a mass of .35kg. Lets multiply .35kg by 1000 to get g. Would that be 350g? Now lets divide 350g by 13.6 our specific gravity. How do we do long division?
