Jini took a container completely filled with some ice cubes floating on it. He observed the container expecting that water to overflow after the ice melted. Can you predict what he would finally see?

The water would not overflow after the melting of the ice cubes because the volume of water obtained from the ice cubes is equal to the volume of water displaced by the ice cubes. The container would be filled up to the brim.
