density= mass/volume.
volume of a regular 3 dimensional object can be calculated with some formula, but the simplest example is a cuboid, which is
length x width x height.
mass is usually just the weight for calculation purposes. weight is actually mass x gravity, but since gravity is 1 on earth, it makes little difference outside of advanced physics.
finding the volume of an irregular 3d object requires submersion. google Archimedes.

density is also calculated by comparing the speeds at which light passes through, N1Sin(theta1) = N2Sin(theta2), n=c/v but M/V works, too.
