You need to have the volume and the mass to calculate the density
To find the density of an object, you need to measure its mass (using a scale) and its volume (using a ruler, displacement method, or geometric calculations). Density is calculated by dividing the mass of an object by its volume.

mass and volume
To find the density of floating objects, you need to measure the mass of the object and the volume of water it displaces when floating. The density can then be calculated by dividing the mass of the object by the volume of water displaced.
1. Measure the dimensions of the object 2. Calculate the volume, in cm3 3. Weigh the object, in g 4. The density is the ratio between the mass and the volume, in g/cm3. For small objects you can use special densimetric balances.
A hydrometer can be used to find the specific gravity (relative density) of a liquid by determining how much water it will displace. Various calibrations are used for different kinds of liquids.
To find the density of earth materials, you can measure the mass and volume of the sample. The density is calculated by dividing the mass by the volume. This information can help in identifying the type of material and understanding its physical properties.
To find the density of a cube, you would first measure the mass of the cube using a scale. Next, measure the length of one side of the cube to find its volume. Finally, you can calculate density by dividing the mass of the cube by its volume. Density = Mass/Volume.
-- Measure its mass. -- Measure its volume. -- Divide its mass by its volume. The result is its density.
To find the density of a regular shaped object, you can calculate it by dividing the mass of the object by its volume. For irregular shaped objects, you would measure the mass of the object using a scale, then measure its displaced water volume when submerged in a graduated cylinder. The density can then be calculated by dividing the mass by the volume of water displaced.
To find the density of an object that floats, you can use the formula density = mass/volume. First, measure the mass of the object using a scale. Then, submerge the object in water and measure the volume of water displaced, which is equal to the volume of the object. Finally, divide the mass of the object by its volume to calculate the density.
mass divided by volume... mass/volume=density
Objects sink or float depending on their Mass and density. If the object has a Density LOWER than water, it will float. Higher than water will sink. You can find density by multiplying its Mass times its Volume, there you have its density. Water has a Density of 1, things with lower may sink, only slightly if there isn't much difference.

Objects with a density lower than 1.00. Find this by using the formula Density=Mass divided by Volume.
It is not two units are not the same as 1 density the objects density only counts on how much the mass of the object is then you will find out the density (units are counted in the density)

You divide the mass and the volume
To find the density of an unknown mineral, you can measure its mass using a scale and then measure its volume by displacement in water. Divide the mass by the volume to calculate the density of the mineral.
