Density Practice Problems

Density is the amount of mass per unit volume of a These three equations can be easily
given object. It can be calculated using the following remembered by using the circle below. Simply
equation. cover up the measurement you are trying to
D=m/v solve and you are left with the mathematical
relationship of the remaining two.
If the density of the object and either mass or volume
is known, by rearranging the above equation.
m=D X v
m
v=m/D

D v
