    The volume of the second prism is also en times than the volume of the first prism.

    Let's assume that both prisms have:

    width = 3 units

    height = 4 units

    Prism 1 length = 5 units

    Prism 2 length = 50 units

    Let's solve their respective volumes to compare ...

    Volume of prism 1 = length * width * height

    = 5 * 3 * 4

    = 60 units ^3

    Volume of prism 2 = 50 * 3 * 4

    = 600 units ^3

    Prism 2 / prism 1 = 10

    That means, prism 2 is ten times than the volume of prism 1.
