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.

p=m/v

where ρ is the density, m is the mass, and V is the volume.
