The image displays a compound manometer setup used to measure pressure. The diagram consists of three different fluids within a U-shaped tube:

1. **Oil** with a specific gravity (sg) of 0.90.
2. **Water** with unspecified specific gravity (commonly sg = 1.00).
3. **Mercury** with a specific gravity (sg) of 13.54.

The heights of the fluids in different sections of the manometer are:

- The oil column is 125 mm high.
- The water column extends 475 mm.
- Mercury separates the oil and water columns, with a 250 mm height in the left limb and a 50 mm height in the right limb.

The problem associated with this figure, labeled as "Figure 3.31 Problem 3.67", involves calculating the pressure at point A in the oil column. The accompanying text, "3.67 For the compound manometer shown in Fig. 3.31, calculate the pressure at point A," indicates that the task is to determine pressure using the heights and specific gravities of the fluids involved.
