A cubical body floats on mercury with 0.25 of its volume below the surface. What fraction of the volume of the body will be immersed in the mercury, if a layer of water poured on top of the mercury covers the body completely? Given, density of mercury-`13.6xx10^3 kg m^-3` and density of water = `10^3kg m^-3`
