Answer:

1800cm^3

Explanation:

Since you know that the containers are simular your gonna want to know the difference. so you would do 1500/375 (The two Surface areas) to get 4 which is the differnce.

The Volume now looks like x/450 - So to find x or the volume of the larger container you would multiply 450x4 which equals 1800
