90cm² x 35cm = 3150cm³
Let new height of water in Y be 1 unit.
So new height of water in X is 4 units.
Total volume of water
= 1 unit x 60cm² + 4 units x 90cm²
60cm² units + 360cm² units
= 420cm² units
420cm² units = 3150cm³,
so 1 unit = 3150cm³ ÷ 420cm²
= 7.5cm
New height of water level in X
= 7.5cm x 4
= 30cm
= 90 : 60
= 9 : 6
= 3 : 2
Since X will have 4 times the height of Y,
3 x 4 = 12
2 x 1 = 2
Ratio the volume of water in X : in Y
= 12 : 2
= 6 : 1
Total = 7 units
Volume of water = 3150cm³ = 7 units
1 unit = 3150 ÷ 7
= 450cm³
Height in X
= 6 x 450cm³ ÷ 90cm²
= 6 x 5cm
= 30cm
