You don't know the denstiy, and you're measuring a liquid. The liquid has an unknown substance in it. Given the mass, how can you find the volume of the liquid and the substance without having to use a graduated cylinder?

You have to measure how much liquid the object displaces. The volume of the displaced liquid equals the volume of the object. You will need a graduated cylinder or some other device to measure liquid volume.

You can't find the volume without either measuring it in a graduated container, or knowing its density. Incidentally, you have to divide the mass by the density, not multiply it.

use a calibrated hydrometer to find the density and divide the mass by the density

multiply mass by density.
