The average density of the body of a fish is \(1080\text{ kg/m}^3\). To keep from sinking, a fish increases its volume by inflating an internal air bladder, known as a swim bladder, with air. By what percent must the fish increase its volume to be neutrally buoyant in fresh water? The density of air at \(20^\circ\text{C}\) is \(1.19\text{ kg/m}^3\).
