Density is calculated by taking mass of an object over volume of the liquid/substance. We can rearrange this formula to find volume of a given liquid. Density formula is usually represented as D = M/V.
length times width times height only if its a irregular shaped object.
all you do is multiply LxWxH and that's it making the formula of
V=LWH
You always have the option to do Length * width * heighth :]
You would use a graduated cylinder, pipet or buret to measure volume of a liquid.

you can find the volume in a solid by taking the substance and putting it into a cilinder and measureing the change in inches.
mass over volume
mass/volume
The volume of an irregularly shaped solid can be measured by placing the solid in a known quantity of water in a container with measurement markings. Take the new volume and find the difference between this and the old volume. This is the volume of your irregularly shaped solid.
a base of a right solid whose height is 6 centementers shown. Find the volume. area is 28 cm and the height is 7cm
The water displacement method is typically used to find the volume of an irregular solid. The object is submerged in a known amount of water, and the increase in water volume is measured. This increase in volume is equal to the volume of the irregular solid.

When you need to find volume of an irregular solid or a liquid.
There kind of solid object will determine the formula that will be used to find its volume.
