Need verification for this equation for buoyancy force.

If
weight of an object in a fluid density of the object
_______________________= ________________
weight of the displaced fluid density of fluid

Than
weight of object x density of fluid
weight of displaced fluid= ___________________________
density of object

Weight of displaced fluid=w1=buoyancy forcew2d1
___________=b-force
d2

Welcome to the PF.

Usually thread starts are a bit easier to decode. Are you asking a question?
 
Well I solved it to get an equation for buoyancy force; I want to know if I did my math right. My parents were no help.
