they ill have same density for sure as thr volume occupied by both the structures per atom of lattice is same

both of them have same volume occupied per atom of lattice

thats why both of them "always" have same density

HCP as well as CCP lattice have same packing efficiency of 74%...Hence in both cases the percentage of the crystal lattice filled is the same....Hence volume is same.... Therefore they have equal density
