Mr. Fuller assigned his science class a lab comparing the masses of objects to the nearest gram using a balance. The mass of a paper clip is about 1 gram. How many paper clips will it take to balance the scale, if it is determined that a 1 centimeter cube of gold has the mass of 19.3 grams?
19 paperclips. Since its to the nearest gram the gold could be rounded to 19g, so 19 paperclips would equal 19g..
