a fundamental unit is kg or m - (also seconds, amps, candela and moles). Density is kg/m3 and is thus derived.

Density is a mass of a volume unit. A unit of density is defined as a unit of mass divided by unit of volume. In its turn, a unit of volume is a third degree of a unit of length. Mass and length units are main units. So density is a derived unit as derived from main units.
