You did not need to know the amount of water originally in the overflow container because it could be easily calculated with the existing information.

How do you use an overflow container to find an object volume?
To find the volume of an object, we use an overflow cylinder as it gives a measure of the volume of the object by displacing an equal amount of water into the beaker.
How is rainfall measured if it exceeds two inches?
When a heavy rainstorm results in water greater than 2 inches, the water flows over the top of the inner container and into the overflow can, which is 4 inches taller than the inner container. The observer measures and records the amount of rain in the inner container and empties the inner container. Then, the observer carefully pours the water from the overflow can into the inner container, measures it and records it. The observer adds the two recorded totals together to obtain a final amount of rainfall.
How can you find an object's volume?
Fill a container with water. Carefull put the object into the container and collect the overflow of water. Measure the water displaced See "Eureka"
How does the overflow tank work?
if your water/antifreeze gets to hot it pushes out the over flow tube into the overflow container, as it cools down it will suck it out of the overflow and back into the radiator.
Where to fill the water on 2005 ford escape radiator?

Why 1 plus 1 not always 2 in water molecules and alcohol molecules?
Water molecules are smaller than alcohol ones. Water ones can fit between alcohol ones. Fill a container with pure alcohol to the top and add water. A certain amount will go into the container and not cause it to overflow.
What is an overflow can and how is it used in chemistry?
overflow can is a container used for holding water during water displacement activity,and it is used for measuring a volume of a object (usually a irregular shape one) by putting it in the the water
Filling the radiator?
1/2 distilled water 1/2 antifreeze to the full line in the overflow container.
Why does a boiling milk overflow but a boiling water does not?

What steps would you take to measure the volume of a ring?
Take a container with a rather precise scale and measure it. Place the ring inside and measure it again. The amount the water goes up is the volume of the ring. Or you could fill a container to the brim with water, with a collecting dish underneath. Put the ring in the container, which would cause some of the water to overflow. The volume of water that left the container is the volume of the ring. Or you could take a clay mold and make a mold of the ring, fill that with water and measure how much water it takes to fill the 3D mold.
What happens to the volume of a liquid when it is poured into a container with a different shape?
Liquids take on the shape of any container they are placed in. If the volume of the container is less than the total volume of the liquid, them the difference in quantity will overflow the top of the container.
