Solution

Mass of the teak wood sample = 480 g

Density of the teak wood sample = 0.48 g/cm3

Volume of the teak wood sample = Mass / Density

= 480 g / 0.48 g/cm3

= 1000 cm3

Mass of the iron sample = 7900 g

Density of the iron sample = 0.79 g/cm3

Volume of the iron sample = Mass / Density

= 7900 g / 0.79 g/cm3

= 1000 cm3

Both the teak wood and iron samples will occupy the same amount of space.
