So the average density of the ship as a whole is less than the density of water. Therefore immersed portion of theship displaces water equal to its weight. So the ship floats whereas a sheet of iron is compact and there are no air spaces inside it. Iron is denser than that of water.

An iron ship (or any metal ship as is the modern standard) floats because it is shaped such that it will contain air within its hull and therefore the average density of the ship as a whole including cavities and all the air space is less than the water and therefore it floats.
hope its help u
