well a good and efficient way at finding the volume when density and mass are given is to cross multiply then divide. or in other words use proportions. if your looking this up you might also want to know how to find the mass when density and volume are given well you could still technically use proportions ,but a faster and better way is to multiply density by volume.

  1. D/1=M/V make sure to put the 1 when using proportions.
  2. DxV=M its easier and simpler than using proportions.

To find the volume, you can use the formula: Volume = Mass / Density. Simply divide the mass by the density to calculate the volume of the object. Make sure to use consistent units for mass and density to get the volume in the correct units.

density = mass/volume

or

p=m/V

so V = m/p

Explanation of the algebra

p=m/V

Times both sides by V

pV = m*V/V

the V`s cancel each other out as V/V is 1

divide both sides by p

pV/p = m/p

the p`s cancel each other as p/p is 1

leaving;

V = m/p

Density is defined as [ mass/volume ].

D = M / V

Multiply each side by 'V' :

D V = M

Divide each side by 'D' :

V = M / D

The volume is the (mass) divided by the (density).

Simply divide the mass by the density. You would get the volume. Because

Density = Mass / Volume.

So Volume = Mass / Density
