Difficulty with the Lab

Hey, I'm not sure if anyone else is experiencing this problem but with Part 3 of our lab I really cannot come up with a way of finding the mass of the clamp. I know we did something with 6 clamps and 200 grams and I have data for that but I do not think my formulas are correct. Can anyone help me?

I am not absolutely positive but you should probably go for making a proportion with the variable representing the number of clamps the weight is.

Look at the time you got for the 200 gram weight and interpolate this time into the graph you made with the 6 clamps. This should give you an estimate of how many clamps add up to 200 grams. Divide 200 grams by this number of clamps and you should have the approximate mass of one clamp
