It isn't. Volume and mass are two very different things. Of course, depending on the units chosen, and the material that takes up a certain space, volume may be less than mass in some cases. But, to give a counter-example: in a perfect vacuum, a cubic meter has a volume (in SI units) of 1 (cubic meter), and a mass of zero (kilograms).

What is also less if the mass is less in a volume?
Density. Mass is the product of volume and density, so therefore density is the ratio of mass to volume.
What will happen to the density if you keep the volume the same and you decrease the mass?
Density = mass / volume, so if you decrease the mass, you'll hve less density.
What happens to the magnitude of mass density as the volume of an object becomes greater than its mass?
Since mass and volume are two different dimensional quantities, there is no meaning in saying that mass is greater or less than the volume.
Do you get denser when you gain altitude?
No. You may weight a little less, but density is mass per volume. Neither mass nor volume changes when you gain altitude.
If the mass of a fixed volume of air increases does the density become more or less dense?
less dense
What is also less if the mass is less in a volume?
Density. Mass is the product of volume and density, so therefore density is the ratio of mass to volume.
What is ture about mass and volume for all floating objects?
The mass is always less than the volume
Is the density of an object is how much matter it contains?
Density of matter has nothing to do with amount of matter or mass that it contains. Density is mass upon volume. If mass becomes less, volume will become less proportionately.
What does mass and volume mean in teams of density?
The more mass can be packed into a given volume, the greater the density. Alternatively, the less volume into which a given mass is packed, the greater the density.
Volume equals density over mass?
No. Volume = Mass / Density Therefore, for the same mass, if the density is higher then the volume is less. This makes perfect sense if you think about it. The atoms of the object are closer together (it is more dense) and so less space (volume) is taken up.
What will happen to the density if you keep the volume the same and you decrease the mass?
Density = mass / volume, so if you decrease the mass, you'll hve less density.
What happens when there is less mass in a given volume air?
The air is less dense.
Why do an object with more density have less volume?
The formula of density is: d = mass/volume.
What happens to the magnitude of mass density as the volume of an object becomes greater than its mass?
Since mass and volume are two different dimensional quantities, there is no meaning in saying that mass is greater or less than the volume.
What is a possible cause of the atlantic water being less dense than other oceans?
density = mass/volume There are only two possibilities. It has more volume or less mass.
What does volume and mass have to do with flotationn?
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
Is larger volume less density?
For the same mass, yes.
