Simple enough; as it's practically impossible to measure the outside dimensions of an object that complex to calculate it, you need to find out how much fluid it displaces.
Fill a calibrated beaker or bowl (one that has measurement lines along the side) big enough to hold your object, in this case a crown. Make a note of the original volume of fluid.
Submerge the crown in the fluid and note what the new volume, then subtract the original volume from the new volume and that's your answer.
Make sure there aren't any bubbles clinging to your crown or it'll throw off your measurements.

Can you measure volume by milliters?
Yes. You can measure liquid volume in milliliters. A graduated cylinder is used to measure liquid volume in millimeters, mL.
Are kilograms usually used to measure volume?
False. Kilograms measure mass. Liters measure volume.
What is loose measure volume?
In Civil engineering, Loose Measure Volume is the measure of the volume of a material after it has been dug up. In general, it will have a lower density than Bank Measure.
How do you find volume when mass and density are not givin?
It depends on the way the question is asked. If you are dealing with a cubic or rectangular object, you measure the length, width, and height, and multiply them. If it is a spherical or irregularly shaped object, you could used water displacement to find its volume. If it's a liquid, you could use a graduated cylinder to measure its volume.
What is the largest volume of measure?
This is volume of the Universe ! As an unit of measure the cubic metre and multiples.
Is the crown a regular polygon?
no its not but if you need to measure the volume of it you drop it in water and measure the amount of water displaced
What could you measure using a measuring clyinder?
we can Measure volume
What do you use to measure the volume of a stone?
You have to use a measuring cylinder and water.
What should be used to measure the volume of an ice cream cone?
You could measure volume in cubic centimeters.
How could you work out the volume of an irregular shaped object?
One method is to use the water displacement technique. Submerge the object in a graduated cylinder or container partially filled with water, then measure the increase in water volume. This increase in volume equals the volume of the irregular object.
Could mass be measured in litres?
No, liters measure volume and volume only.
What could you measure using a measuring cylinder?
Volume of liquids. You could also use it to measure the volume of small solids using the displacement-of-fluid method.
What is a object used to measure the volume very precisely?
Use a graduated cylinder to precisely measure volume
How does the acrchimedes crown story relate to matter?
The Archimedes story relates that Archimedes had been trying to determine if the King's crown was pure gold, without having to melt it down (destroying it) to see. Archimedes sat down in the tub and noted that the water rose in the tub, and that he realized that the volume of water displaced was equal to the volume of Archimedes himself. This gave him an insight into how to determine the volume of the crown; by submerging the crown in water and measuring how far the water rose, this would give him the volume of the crown. He could then weigh the crown and calculate the density of the crown, and determine that the crown was not pure gold.

What is a a beaker used for?
To measure volume
What two tools are used to measure volume?
two tools that you can use to measure volume are a measuring cup and/or you could multiply the height times the width times the length in a rectangular container
