The Density of Saturn is 710. kg / m³. Yes, Saturn would float if you could place it in a gigantic bathtub filled with water.

Explanation:

Density = mass/volume

We are given a mass (which I am assuming is in kilograms) and a volume. Divide to find density.

Density of Saturn = 5.69 x 10²⁶ kg / 8.01 x 10²³ m³

Density of Saturn = 710. kg / m³

The density of water is 1000 kg/m³, which is higher than the density of Saturn. Since Saturn has a lower density than water, theoretically, Saturn would float in a gigantic bathtub filled with water.
