The answer is simple. The table has more mass than the pencil, because it has more amount of matter!

BUT...

MASS IS NOT ALWAYS RELATED TO THE SIZE OF THE OBJECT!!!

For example, a pineapple can have more mass than a pillow that is larger in size. Although the pillow is bigger, it is lighter than the pineapple

Also, just because two objects are the same size doesn't mean they have the same mass

For example, a bowling ball and a football ball have the same size but the bowling ball has more mass.
