A cuboid glass container is 8 decimeters long, 6 decimeters wide, 5 decimeters high and 4 decimeters deep. If you put a cube with an edge length of 4 decimeters Solid iron, how much water will overflow from the container?

A cuboid glass container is 8 decimeters long, 6 decimeters wide, 5 decimeters high and 4 decimeters deep. If a square solid iron block with 4 decimeters long edges is put in, how much water will overflow from the container?
The results are as follows
The depth of the water after the iron is put in
(8 * 6 * 4 + 4 * 4) / (8 * 6) = = 16 / 3 = = 5.333 decimeters
Volume of overflow water
8 * 6 * [(16 / 3) - 5] = = 48 * (1 / 3) = = 16 cubic decimeters
A: the water in the container will overflow 16 cubic decimeters
