This statement is not correct. The weight of the water displaced by a body in it, is equal to the buoyancy force that the body will experience. In the case the body floats on the surface of water, the weight of the water displaced by the body is equal to the weight of the body.
Look at the LAST WORD of the question, they switch it sometimes if it is: Underwater than it is TRUE, If it's Surface of the water than it is FALSE ~

If an item floats, Then it is less dense than the liquid it floats in. One can prove this using bernoulli's equation. To determine the weight of the floating object, take the volume of water displaced by the portion of the object below the fliud surface then multiply that by the density of the fluid. This process gives you the bouyant force on the floating object and therefore the weight. Then take that weight and divide it by the total volume of the. Object to get its density. Also note that if an item is suspended below the surface but. Above the bottom of the fluid body, then the item and fluid have equal density. If the item sinks to the bottom it has higher density than the fluid.
the weight of the displaced water is equal to the weight of the object
It's true that the volume of displaced water of a floating object equalst the portion of that object that is underwater.

Push it down, and measure the displaced liquid.
If you push it down, you can measure the volume of the displaced liquid.
the amount of density
If possible, fully immerse the object in water, and measure the volume of displaced water.
