Physics question: determining the weight of gold in an alloy using density and newton measurements

A jeweler has made a crown of an alloy of gold and copper. The crown weighs 0.358 N when measured in air and 0.338 N when submerged completely in water. The density of water is 1.00× 10^3kg/m3, the density of copper is 8.92 × 10^3 kg/m3, and the density of gold is 1.93 ×10^4 kg/m3 . Calculate the weight of the gold in the crown.
