Volumes are cubic measures. Use a 3.
Density = Mass/Volume, correct. However, with a cylinder, you have to find the volume. In order to find the volume of a cylinder use the equation PiR2 * H where "R" is the radius (Diameter/2) squared.
A graduated cylinder is a good way to find volume. Another way to find volume is to use the following equation: Length x Width x Height. This is a way to find the volume of a rectangular or square item.
To find the volume of an object, we use an overflow cylinder as it gives a measure of the volume of the object by displacing an equal amount of water into the beaker.

To find the volume of an irregular shape, you need to use the water displacement method. If the object can fit into a graduated cylinder, fill the cylinder with enough water to adequately cover the object, but don't put the object inside the cylinder yet. Record the amount of water in the cylinder. Carefully drop the object into the cylinder. This will cause a rise in the water in the cylinder. Record this second volume. Subtract the first volume from the second volume, and the difference is the volume of the irregular object. For larger objects, use an overflow can.

Volume of a cylinder = (3.14) × r² × h

You can use a graduated cylinder to measure an object's volume.Fill the cylinder with water up to some convenient mark that's deeper than the object, and notethe volume of water in the cylinder. Than immerse the object in the water in the cylinder and notethe volume again. The difference between the two volume readings is the volume of the object.In my house, we have graduated cylinders which we refer to as our "measuring cups".
