Best Answer: The volume of ice is larger than the volume of the water it melts into. An ice cube might typically be about 2 x 2 x 3 cm = 12 ml ice which would become about 11 ml water . 3/4 cup is about 150 ml so about 14 ice cubes should be enough to get you the water you want. The volume of an ice does not change when it melts.
