The density of water is 1000 kilograms per cubic meter and the density of ice is about 916 kilograms per cubic meter of 700 kilograms of water and 450 kilograms of ice is combined in a container what is the volume of the water

Respuesta :

we know that
density=mass/volume--------> volume=mass/density

step 1
find the volume of water
mass=700 kg
density of water=1000 kg/m³
volume of water=mass/density-----> 700/1000----> 0.70 m³

step 2
find the volume of ice
mass=450 kg
density of ice=916 kg/m³
volume of ice=mass/density-----> 450/916----> 0.49 m³

volume of water is 0.70³
volume of ice is 0.49 m³
volume of the mixture is (0.70+0.49)-----> 1.19 m³

the answer is
the volume of water is  0.70 m³
