One method would be with water displacement. Fill a graduated cylinder with a known amount of water. Drop in the nut. Push below surface with wire, or something with negligible volume. Read volume, and subtract.
Still me... by the way, this is an 8th grade science experiment so simplicity would be nice. Thank you for your assistance in advance.
To find the volume of an irregular solid using the overflow can method, you would first fill the overflow can with water and measure the initial volume. Next, you would submerge the irregular solid in the overflow can, causing the water to overflow. Measure the new volume of water in the overflow can with the solid submerged. Finally, you would subtract the initial volume from the final volume to find the volume of the irregular solid.

To calculate the density of an unknown substance, first measure its mass using a balance. Then, determine its volume by either measuring its dimensions and calculating the volume or using displacement method in a liquid. Finally, divide the mass by the volume to calculate the density of the unknown substance.
It would not be good for finding the volume of an object that is less dense than water. Such an object would float and therefore would not displace its full volume worth of water.
Multiple the length by the width by the height
To find the volume of an irregularly shaped object that would dissolve in water, you can use the water displacement method. Fill a known volume of water in a container, note the initial water level, then submerge the object in the water and measure the new water level. The difference in water levels is the volume of the object.

Train. Would have been the easiest method.
