What is the volume of Jamie's ring in cubic centimeters?

Respuesta :

Answer:

1.50 cm^3.

Step-by-step explanation:

The ring will displace its own volume of water.

The increase in height of the water = 4.25 - 4 = 0.25 cm.

Therefore the increase in the volume =  area of the base of the glass * 0.25

= 3 * 2 * 0.25

=  6 * 0.25

= 1.50 cm^3.

This is also the volume of the ring.
