The density of an object is its mass divided by its volume. If that is less than the density of water, it will float; if greater it will sink

Density = Mass / Volume Rearranging this gives: Volume = Mass / Density Mass = Density × Volume
% of volume = 100*(volume of substance that you are interested in)/(total volume) % of mass = 100*(mass of substance that you are interested in)/(total mass).
density=mass/volume volume=mass/density
You have to know two out of three ... mass, volume, density ... then you can find the missing one. If density is missing . . . Density = (mass)/(volume) If mass is missing . . . Mass = (density) x (volume) If volume is missing . . . Volume = (mass)/(density)
Density= mass/volume volume = mass/density
