Answer:

its c. 15 kg...

Step-by-step explanation:

We know, according to archimedes principle,

Weight of Liquid displaced = Weight of body in air - Weight of body in liquid when immerse

so from that we get

Weight of body in liquid when immerse = Weight of body in air + Weight of Liquid displaced
