A cube of edge 17cm is immersed completely in a rectangular vessel containing water. If the dimensions of the base of vessel are 20cm * 15cm , find the rise in water level?
Choose the most appropriate option
A) 6cm
B) 8.25cm
C) 11.25cm
D) 16.37cm
E) 20.62cm
Increase in volume = volume of the cube = 17*17*17 cm^3   Rise in water level = volume / area = 17*17*17/20*15 = 16.37cm   Answer is 16.37cm
