Recall the definition of density in chemistry: Density is a measure of how much mass is contained in a given volume of a substance.
Express this relationship mathematically as density \(= \frac{\text{mass}}{\text{volume}}\).
Understand that density is not the sum or product of mass and volume, but rather the ratio of mass to volume.
Evaluate the options given: 'mass plus volume' and 'mass multiplied by volume' do not represent density because they do not express a ratio.
Confirm that 'mass divided by volume' correctly represents density, while 'volume divided by mass' is the inverse and thus incorrect for density.
