Answer:

13,564.8

Explanation:

The ratio of the volumes of similar solids is the cube of the scale factor.

Scale factor:

red solid : blue solid = 12/10 = 6/5

Ratio of volumes:

volume red solid : volume blue solid = (6/5)^3

volume of red solid = 7850 ft^3 * (6/5)^3 = 13,564.8 ft^3

Answer: V = 13,564.8 ft^3
