Sagot :
Let:
[tex]\begin{gathered} V_1\colon\text{ volume of iceberg below the water line} \\ V_2\colon\text{ volume of iceberg above the waterline} \end{gathered}[/tex]We want to finde some number k such that we can express the volume of the iceberg below the water line as the product of k and the volume of the iceberg above the waterline, this is:
[tex]V_1=k\cdot V_2[/tex]then, solving for k we have the following:
[tex]\begin{gathered} V_1=2^5m^3 \\ V_2=2^2m^3 \\ V_1=k\cdot V_2 \\ \Rightarrow k=\frac{V_1}{V_2}=\frac{2^5}{2^2}=2^{5-2}=2^3^{} \\ k=2^3 \end{gathered}[/tex]we have that k=2^3. This means that the volume of the iceberg above the water line is 2^3 times the volume of the iceberg below the water line
