Determine what kind of pennies that will be used, in this case 1983 post pennies were used. After determination of what pennies will be used, 24 pennies were gathered from 1983 and post 1983.
Put 30 mL of water into a graduated cylinder and weighed it, and also had to determine the volume of water in the graduated cylinder.
