    27

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Suppose that the dimensions of the rectangular prism are L, W and H.

    Then the volume is V = L*W*H.

    If you mean to increase EACH dimension by a factor of 3, then we' have

    V = (3L) * (3W) * (3H), or V = 27 L*W*H.

    The volume of the modified prism would be 27 times larger than that of the original prism.
