Hey, thanks for that =)

I was stupidly dividing, i was doing Density / Mass to find volume.

I am having a stupid moment on re-arranging formulas.

You see i know Density = mass / volume and Volume = mass / density, but i have had a mental blank and cant figure out why Mass = density * volume, i dont get why i think its divide.

Shed some light please? I am sure its a stupid complication on my part, seem to have a mental blank on re-arranging formula as i have a few other forumulas for pressure to figure out, but dont get when its right to multiply and divide?

cheers
