take a column of area A, height h.
The weight of that column is density*volume*g=density*Ah*g
= 1000kg/m^2*9.8N/kg*A*(3.96)
pressure= weight/A
I measured depth from the top, I assume the writer here had that in mind.

I'm confused about what A should be then? Is that what I'm solving for? I thought I was solving for pressure?
