Answer:

432 in^3

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of linear dimensions is the square root of the ratio of the areas, so is ...

scale factor = √(36/25) = 6/5

The ratio of volumes is the cube of the ratio of linear dimensions, so is ...

volume ratio = (scale factor)^3 = (6/5)^3 = 216/125

Then the volume of the larger figure is ...

larger volume = (250 in^3)·(216/125) = 432 in^3
