In science class we learned how to find the volume of an irregularly shaped object. For example, if you put a rock in a glass of water, it displaces the water or it makes the water rise. To find the volume if that object, we had to use a graduated cylinder. So say that the volume was 40ml, then when we drop the rock it rises to 60ml. So you subtract the difference from before the rock was dropped, to after the rock was dropped. So 60 - 20 is 20ml. The volume of the rock is 20ml.
    In science class, I learned how to find the volume of an irregularly shaped object. It was kind of difficult before, but now it is really easy. I understood it because she used an example using a graduated cylinder.
