Volume is like the capacity of an item. Volume is found by multiplying the base by the height by the width of a geometric shape. Volume is expressed as cubic units. The formula is: Base*Width*Height. Of course, the order doesn't matter.
Mass is amount of matter in an object. You find mass by placing an object on one end of a balance scale. You then add gram weights to the other side until the scale is perfectly balanced. The total number of grams of weight on the other side of the balance scale is the mass of the object. Remember, mass IS NOT weight. Weight will change depending on the amount of gravity, mass will not.

How does on find mass when given density and volume?
Multiply them: density*volume = mass
Do you multiply the mass by its volume to find the density of an object?
No mass divided by volume
How do you use mass and volume to find the density of an object?
mass divided by volume
How do you find the volume if only the mass is shown?
You can't. Volume is the space occupied by a substance or object. To find the volume from the mass, the density would have to be known. Density = Mass / Volume If you want to find any of the three, you need the other two.
How do you find the density of a sphere given its mass and radius?
Density = mass/ volume volume= 4/3(pie)(r^3) ***r= radius in meters** so find volume then divide mass by volume and there you go.
