If you are given the density and the mass, how do you get the volume?
mass = volume x density
Rearrange to get
volume = mass/density
Do you not know how to rearrange these formulas.
mass = volume x density. Let's use letters.
m = v x d
To solve for v, we want to get v on one side an everything eles on the other. How can we do that?
m = v x d.
We divide both sides by d.
m/d = v*d/d
m/d = v
OR, if we wanted to solve for density.
m = v x d
Divide by v (so the v cancels)
m/v = v*d/v
The v cancels and we have left
m/v = d
or mass/volume = density.
To find the volume, you need to use the formula for density:
Density = Mass / Volume
Rearranging this formula, you can isolate the volume by multiplying both sides of the equation by Volume:
Density * Volume = Mass
Now, to solve for volume, divide both sides by density:
Volume = Mass / Density
So, if you are given the density and the mass, you can find the volume by dividing the mass by the density.
