You are having a house built and the bricklayer wants to make sure he has enough bricks. He must measure their volume.

Which of the following should he do to make sure he has the correct volume of the bricks?

• The bricklayer should measure the bricks with a ruler and use the formula that multiplies height, width, and length to determine the volume.

• The bricklayer should put the bricks in a graduated cylinder of water and measure how much water is displaced.

• The bricklayer should put the bricks on a scale and measure the weight in kilograms to determine the volume.

• The bricklayer should drop the bricks from the top of a ladder and time how long it takes the bricks to hit the ground.
