Question
Now make your own measuring glass using 35 marbles.
Take a glass of water and mark the level of the water as 0. Then put in 5 marbles and mark the level of the water as 5 M.
Again drop 5 marbles and mark the level of the water as 10 M. Likewise make the markings for 15 M, 20 M, 25 M, 30 M, and 35 M.
Now put each thing in the measuring glass and check your guess.
Try with different things like a matchbox, a stone, etc., and fill the table.
| Name of the thing | Its volume (nearly how many marbles?) |
