Answer:

823.7m²

Explanation:

When we divide congruent sides of similar solids or plane figures we get the linear scale factor.

The square of the linear scale factor gives the area scale factor while it's cube gives the volume scale factor.

In this question, the linear scale factor will be 6/5

Since we are asked to find the surface area we square the linear scale factor to get the area scale factor ASL.

(6/5)=36/25

To get the surface area of the larger prism we multiply the surface area of the smaller by the ASL as shown

(36/25)× 572m²= 823.7m²
