Final answer:

We cannot determine the volume of the larger bottle without a scale factor or additional measurements of the larger bottle, as similar figures have their corresponding linear dimensions and therefore volume ratios based on these measurements.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is asking to find the volume that the larger bottle can hold given the volume of the smaller bottle. We are told two bottles are similar, but without a direct scale factor or additional measurements provided for the larger bottle, we cannot calculate its volume. In geometry, similar figures have their corresponding linear dimensions in the same ratio. If we knew the ratio of the heights or widths of the bottles, we could use this to determine the ratio of their volumes. However, this information is not provided in the question. Since we lack necessary information, we cannot accurately answer this question.
