Anna has a marble, a toy car, and a graduated cylinder with 20 mL of water in it. How can Anna best find the volume of the marble and toy car together?

• Put both objects in the graduated cylinder, look at how much the water rises, and divide this number by two.

• Put both objects in the graduated cylinder and see how much the water rises from the original volume of 20 mL.

• Pour out the water, put each object in the graduated cylinder, and see which mark it reaches.
