A student wants to measure the volume of flour that he can put into a rectangular container. What is the best way to determine the volume of flour that he can put in it? Compare the volume of the object to a shape that has a known volume.

Put the object in a known volume of water and determine the volume from the volume of the water with the object.

Use a balance and measure the mass of the object to estimate the volume.

Use a ruler to measure the length, width, and height of the container to find the volume.
