if i assume that by "without a shape" you mean having an irregular or difficult shape to use math equations to calculate then you could use water displacement for example,

in a measured container filled with a specific pre-measured amount of water, noting the volume, add the solid and now you can subtract the old volume from the first to get the solid's volume

No, it is not possible to find the volume of a solid without knowing its shape. The volume of a solid is determined by its dimensions and shape, so without this information, it is not possible to calculate the volume.

How do you find the volume ofa shape without numbers?

You don't.


What does it mean when you find the volume of a solid shape?

It's the amount of cubic space within it.


How do you find the density of an irregular shape solid?

Mass divided by volume, just like anything else.


How can you find the density of a solid with a regular shape?

There is insufficient information for us to answer this question. Density = Mass / Volume. For a regular shape, the volume can be determined from a formula - which will depend on the shape. However, you still require the mass for which there is no information.


What form of matter has no definite shape but has a definite volume?

The state of matter that has definite volume, but indefinite shape is the liquid state. A solid constantly has the same shape and volume. A wooden block (solid) will not change its shape or volume unless it is melted, but that would involve changing it from solid to liquid. A liquid constantly has the same volume, but its shape changes. Find a cylindrical container that has the same volume as a rectangular container. Fill the cylindrical container with water. Then, pour the water to the rectangular container. The shape of the water changed from cylindrical to rectangular and the volume remained the same, unless some water was dropped in the process. A gas has changing shape and volume. Find a small container full of a colored gas. Open in it inside a room. The gas will spread all over the room. Its volume changed from the volume of the container to the size of the room. Its shape has changed from the shape of the container to the shape of the room.


How to get the volume of an irregularly shape or solid?

One way to find the volume of an irregular shape or solid is to use the method of displacement. Fill a container with a known volume of water, then submerge the irregular shape or solid in the water and measure the volume of water displaced, which equals the volume of the irregular shape or solid.

How you can use a ruler and some simple to find the volume of a solid object?

The answer depends on the shape of the object. There are some objects whose volume you simply cannot obtain by calculation.


How do you solve for volume of a solid object?

To find the volume of a solid object, you typically need to know the shape of the object. Common formulas for finding volume include V = lwh for a rectangular prism, V = πr^2h for a cylinder, and V = (4/3)πr^3 for a sphere. Once you have the dimensions of the object, plug them into the corresponding formula to calculate the volume.
