    270 units³

    Step-by-step explanation:

    l*w*h = 10

    lwh = 10

    New Volume = (3l) * (3w) * (3h)

    = 27*lwh

    = 27*10

    = 270 units³

    Alternately,

    Since the sides are increased in the same ratio,

    The two prisms are similar figures

    For similar figures,

    volume1/volume2 = (side1/side2) ³

    New Volume/10 = (3/1) ³ = 27

    New Volume = 270 units³
