The weight of the fluid displaced = weight of the iceberg.
Specific weight of iceberg = 10.5-(15% of 10.5).
= 8.925.
Specific weight of iceberg = 10.5-(15% of 10.5).
= 8.925.

The weight of the fluid displaced = weight of the iceberg.
10.5 * 0.85v = v * X,
X = 8.925.
10.5 * 0.85v = v * X,
X = 8.925.
