1) The question we were trying to answer was do average masses of different beans really equal a standard quantity?
2)What we did for our investigation was we got 50 beans of each type of bean and than we scaled them, finding out which one weigh less in which we use that one to get our relative mass for the beans. We did it like this way so we can see if they could equal the standard quantity of the beans.
3)Our claim was yes, because the bean count was equal to it's relative mass. Our evidence is the picture below, which shows the bean type, mass, relative mass, and bean count. Our reasoning comes in 3 parts,  for the first part was why we choose yes, because the bean count all fell around the '20' amount. Rather then random numbers. On the second part for what the relative mass means, is was the relative mass will be the bean w/the smallest mass which, will be the bean all are compared to(each type of bean) example: lint bean/ kidney bean. And the last part for how this models a mole, which since the beans all go around 20 (for the bean count) It's mid-range was 23, and if all the beans had a count of 23, we would get roughly the same mass for all of them, which makes our standard quantity.
