      Since units of bottle openers are discrete, the answer is 9. Units have to be discrete because we don't know exactly how much mass comes from the glue vs the bottle openers. Since other assumptions are in play though, just round to 2 decimal places, should be fine.

      Pushing down is way easier than pulling up btw, requires more force because gravity pulls down.
