of course 180 is correct if the length and breadth of both the container s are same

The ratio of the volumes of similar solids is equal to the cubed scale factor.

Scale factor = 5/3


\cfrac{V_(larger)}{V_(smaller)}=\left( (5)/(3) \right)^3 \ \to \ \\ \\V_(larger)=V_(smaller)*\left( (5)/(3) \right)^3 =108* (125)/(27)= 4*125=500 \ \ cubic \ inches

Hope this helps
