An iceberg floats with exactly one-ninth of its volume above the water surface. The part standing above the water measures 400 m³. Find the total volume of the iceberg in m³.

Question

Accepted Answer

3600. The visible part is 1/9 of the whole, so the whole = 400 × 9 = 3600 m³. (The submerged eight-ninths measure 3200 m³.)
