method usede to figure the volume of an irregular shaped object
The water displacement method is typically used to find the volume of an irregular solid. The object is submerged in a known amount of water, and the increase in water volume is measured. This increase in volume is equal to the volume of the irregular solid.

Make a mold of the object and then fill the mold with water and measure the volume of the water.

The water displacement method is typically used to find the volume of an irregular solid. The object is submerged in a known amount of water, and the increase in water volume is measured. This increase in volume is equal to the volume of the irregular solid.
There are many ways to find the volume of irregular shapes, but the most commonly used method is Water Displacement.

Liquid displacement
Displacement is the process used to find the volume of an irregular object. This is done by submerging the object in water and measuring either the height the water rises or the volume of water that overflows the container.
Archimedes' principle is used. Water will be displaced by the volume of what is put into it. That displaced volume can be measured giving the weight.
Make a mold of the object and then fill the mold with water and measure the volume of the water.
The unit used to measure irregular volume is cubic centimeters (cm3). However, liters may be used - 1 cm3 is equal to 1 milliliter.
