Red Group Lap Report Madison Treas, Reagan Ricossa, Isabella Grisanti, and Lillie Smith

1. Problem: Which paper towel brand absorbs a mess the best?

2.Observation/Research: Th e Schnucks brand is cheaper than the Bounty brand. The Bounty original brand will always cost more than the store bought brand.

3. Group Hypothesis: We think the Bounty brand will absorb more liquid than the store bought brand because the price is higher, and it is the original brand.

4. Test Hypothesis: Supplies- Paper Towels, water, plates , aprons, and a measuring utensil. 1. We will test our expiriment by pouring one tablespoon of wat er on each plate. W e will wipe one paper towel from each brand onto the plates. 2. Then we will see which paper towel absorbs the most water. 3.We will compare price and the duribility in the different paper towel brand s. 4.We will do a se cond absorbanc y test which will be to hold open the paper towel and pore water on top of it to see which brand holds more water without going through. 5 . We will test the paper towels four times to make sure we are accur a te. 6. We will then have another group make sure our testing is correct by doing the experiment two more times.
