density of the object = mass of object / volume of object
mass of object = 3.4 g
volume of object = 30.1 ml - 25. 1 ml = 5.0 mls (according to Archimedes Principle - look it up)
density of object = 3.4 g / 5.0 mls = 0.68 g / ml (2 significant figures based on 3.4 g)

hi Kendall T., that's your second?? question today. What volume was added? What does that tell you about the object, and what had to be done to it to raise the water so far? Answer those, and you should be able to calculate density (hint: in g/mL).12/21/19
