You have a cube of ice floating in a glass of water. The question is what fraction of the ice will be above the water line? Assume that the ice is not bobbing.

Most of you have probably heard the answer to this before. But please provide a proof or solution, along with your assumptions.

np_rt.  I too know there is a set of solution for you in this question.  But it is up to us to solve the question if there is no clear cut in the question.  The way to solve the question by assuming this and that should not be the way to solve the puzzle.
