45.2 cubic centimeter

Explanation:
When the object is placed into the cylinder, that object’s volume displaces the volume of water that used to occupy that space. This means that the difference between the volume with the aluminum and the original volume is equal to the volume of the piece of aluminum. So, 95.2mL - 50.0mL = 45.2mL. Cubic centimeters are equal to milliliters, so the answer is 45.2 cubic centimeters.
