Answer:
32 pounds
Explanation:
The amount of water in the 200 pound person is
200 * 60% = 200*0.6 = 120 pounds
Of the 120 pounds, a third of this is extracellular fluid, the amount of extracellular fluid is
120 / 3 = 40 pounds
20 % of this is in the blood, which amounts to
40 * 20% = 40 * 0.2 = 8 pounds
The rest is interstitial fluid, which is
40 - 8 = 32 pounds
Not really the volume of a container is simply length X width X depth so just how big the container unless the water is pressurized by some sort of weight or if the containers air pressure is lowered
