~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~`

The tank dimensions are 20 cm x 20 cm x 20 cm.

Its volume is 20*20*20 = 8000 cm%5E3 = 8 liters,
since 1 liter = 1000 cm%5E3.

So, the empty (~ non-filled) volume of the tank is the difference
8 liters - 3.75 liters.

Please calculate yourself this difference.
