It is the ratio of the densities of a particular fluid with water.

We know that the density of water = 1000kg/m^3.

So, to get the density of a fluid, multiply its specific gravity by 1000.

Ex : Specific gravity of mercury is 13.6(dimensionless) , so its density = 13600 kg/m^3

Will nip in at times to solve problems :)
