Density

Density is a measurement that compares the amount of matter an object has to its volume. An object with much matter in a certain volume has high density. An object with little matter in the same amount of volume has a low density. Density is found by dividing the mass of an object by its volume:

${\displaystyle \rho ={\frac {m}{V}}}$

where ρ is the density, m is the mass, and V is the volume.^[1]
