The volume of a solid object is measured using a mathematical equation appropriate to its geometry, provided it is of regularly geometrical form (polyhedral or circle-based). Alternatively, if it is irregular but small and can be immersed, by displacement of water.
if the object is solid, or you are willing to include the error of the wall thickness, then the displacement of an object IS its volume. if one was to submerge that object in a liquid, the change of volume that liquid would experience would be equivalent to the volume of the object being submerged.
you do length * width * height .

Would not work for anything other than a cuboid!
You look at the front of the material and you measure it and that is how you get the volume of a solid object.

There is no single equation. Some simple shapes have equations and these vary from one shape to another. For most shapes there are no equations.
mass/volume=density
Definite shape and volume is a state that defines solid.
The amount of a liquid that is displaced by a solid = the volume of that solid. You could half fill a graduated cylinder. Drop something that sinks into the graduated cylinder to test its volume.
It has a fixed shape and volume
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
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.

You break up the composite figure into smaller shapes whose volumes you can work out, and them add them together.
A composite Solid is a solid formed by two more more solids. ex. If a qube and a pyramid came together, it would make a house, or a composite solid. :D
