Ah, the Eureka question. The original questioner in recorded history was of a Greek king whose crown was supposedly made of pure gold. At least the king had given the jeweler a given weight of pure gold and the new crown weighed exactly that amount when it came back. But, the king became suspicious and wanted to be sure his crown was pure gold and the jeweler had not substituted a baser metal for part of the gold.
The king sent for Archimedes who had solved many of the kings problems and asked Archimedes to devise a test for making sure the crown was pure gold. Archimedes thought long and hard over the problem. As the legend goes (and it almost certainly didn't happen this way as Archimedes never wrote about it and the first recording of the legend was about 200 years after Archimedes died), when Archimedes lowered himself into the public baths in Syracuse, the displacement of water from his body caused the bath to overflow, thus giving him the insight in how to measure the volume of an irregular shaped object. Archimedes, according to the legend, then went running naked through the streets of Syracuse yelling "Eureka" which translated means "I have found it."
So, to get to your answer, the density of an object is by definition the mass divided by the volume. First obtain the mass of the object, usually by weighing it. Now determine the volume by immersing your object into a full container of water and either measuring the amount of water that overflows out of the container, or preferably (at least to my mind) measuring how much water it takes to refill the container. Divide the mass by the volume and you have the density.
Measure the volume of the object which is same as the volume of the displaced liquid in which that sinks. And measure the mass of the same object from a weighing machine. then use density = mass/volume
Measure the displacement of water when the object is submerged in water. This gives the volume ; then weigh the object and divide the weight by the volume to get the density.
You need to do the water displacement method. The water displacement needs a graduated cylinder and water.
scientists have proven that it is frogs.
Weigh the object. Determine the volume. Divide the mass by the volume to get the density. To get the volume of an irregular shaped object can be challenging especially if there are cavities (holes) in it. submersion in a liquid or powder of known volume might be possible. Measure the difference in the volume of the liquid and the liquid + the object (making sure the object is entirely below the surface of the liquid and that any cavities are filled).

-- Measure its mass. -- Measure its volume. -- Divide the mass by the volume. The result of the division is the object's density.
density is mass per volume. First weigh (mass) the key, then to find it's volume, place it into a container with liquid and measure how much volume is displaced.
Displacement
to measure an irregular object you fill a graduated cylinder part way with water, measure that in milliliters, put the object in, measure that in milliliters, then subtract the 1st measurement from the 2nd and convert the answer to cubic centimeters. 1 milliliter =1cubic centimeter
