(A) A bar of lead, weighing 119g, has dimensions 2cm x 5cm x 1cm

V = L x W x H
Its volume =10 cm³

10 cm³ of lead has a mass of 119g so the density is 119g/ 10 cm³ = 11.9 g / cm³

(B) A brick and a piece of wood both measure 20cm x 10cm x 7cm

The mass of the brick is 2184g
The mass of the wood is 990g

Both shapes have the same volume, but the brick has more mass.
Which has the higher density?
