Question

In art class, two students each receive their own 100-gram lump of clay. Each student then uses their clay to make a sculpture, and both students use all of their clay. One student makes a clay boat that can float in water. The other creates a clay cube that sinks in water. What is most likely true about the sculptures? (1 point)
• The sculpture that floats has less mass.
• The sculpture that sinks has more mass.
・The mass of two sculptures together is 100 grams. 
・Each sculptures mass is 100 grams.

GPT-4o mini · Answer

The most likely true statement about the sculptures is: Each sculpture's mass is 100 grams.

This is because each student started with a 100-gram lump of clay and used all of it to create their sculptures, so each sculpture must weigh 100 grams, irrespective of whether they float or sink.
