There is 90% of an iceberg's volume (and mass) that is underwater.

∙ 7y agoTypically, about 90% of an iceberg is underwater, while only about 10% is visible above the surface. This is because ice is less dense than seawater, causing most of the iceberg to remain submerged.
1/10 because 9/10 and 1/10 make 1 (a whole, in this case a whole iceberg).
typically only one-tenth of the volume of an iceberg is above water.
Approx 0.9 of an iceberg is submerged.
About 2/9ths of the berg would be above the water. Can you detail out?
It is either a positive or negative proper fraction, 0 or an improper negative fraction.
Nine tenths (9/10) of an iceberg is underwater.
1/10 because 9/10 and 1/10 make 1 (a whole, in this case a whole iceberg).
about 90%.
under
Since the part below the water is 7 times the size of the part above water, the total size of the iceberg can be divided into 8 equal parts (7 parts below water + 1 part above water). Therefore, the fraction of the iceberg above water is 1/8.
under the water
An iceberg is 90% under the water.
about 7/8 to 6/7 is hidden under water
Because up to 90% of an iceberg's mass is found under the water's surface
Remembering that only about a tenth of any iceberg is above the water, Titanic's berg was about 96 feet above sea level.
An iceberg is 100% until it breaks up (calves).
The visible part of an iceberg is called the iceberg's "tip" or "peak," which is above the water surface. However, this visible portion represents only about 10% of the entire iceberg, with the majority of its mass lying submerged beneath the water.
