    What fraction of the volume of an iceberg (density 917kg/ m^(3) ) would be visible if the iceberg floats (A) in the ocean (salt water density 1024kg/ m^(3) ) and (B) in a river (fresh water density 1000 kg/ m^(3) )?(when salt water freezes to form ice, the salt is excluded. So an iceberg could provide fresh water to a community)
