Step-by-step explanation:

Density is an intensive property of matter.

It is the mass per unit volume of a substance and it is expressed mathematically below:

Density =
(mass)/(volume)

Mass is the amount of matter present within a substance

Volume is the space a substance occupies

So, density is directly proportional to the mass of a body and inversely related to the volume it occupies.

The packing of a substance is very important for determining the density values .
