solid q (0.75) becozz the solid is light then the density of water that's why it will float in s liquid

solid q will float because it's density is lower than the density of liquid s.
hence , the weight of q [(density of q) x (volume of q) x (acceleration due to gravity)] can be overcome by buoyancy force of liquid s [(density of liquid) x (volume of q) x(acceleration due to gravity) ]
