A die is basically a cube. Calculate density by measuring the volume of the cube and dividing that into the weight of the cube.

The volume can be calculated using the formula for a cube. Let's assume the holes in the faces are negligible. All three sides of a cube(Length, width and height) are the same length.

Volume = length of side X length of side X length of side

Measure the weight of the die.

Density = Weight / Volume

If the dots on the die are cut out, then you can get a little more accurate by measuring the size of the dot and calculating the depth. Then you would try to calculate the volume of a dot on the die.

Then subtract this volume for each of the dots on the faces of the die. There are 21 dots(I think).

There's no fun in playing it safe. Why not try something a little unhinged?
