(how to use the Density triangle video)

7. To remember the formula for density use the density triangle:V

8. D M V
This line represents ÷
This line represents x

9. You need mass and volume
To find density:
You need mass and volume
Write your formula starting with what you are looking for:
D =
Now read your triangle:
D = M ÷ V D M V

10. You need density and volume
To find Mass:
You need density and volume
Write your formula starting with what you are looking for:
M =
Now read your triangle:
M = D x V

11. You need density and mass V
To find Volume:
You need density and mass
Write your formula starting with what you are looking for:
V =
Now read your triangle:
V = M ÷ D

12. D = V
M = _________
_______ = M
______ ÷ V = D D M V
