Answer:

d) 27 times

Step-by-step explanation:

Let l,w, and h represent the length, width and height of the small box.

Therefore, 3l,3w, and 3h are the dimensions of the large box.

The volume of a rectangular prism, such as a box, is the product of its length, width and height

Volume of small box = l*w*h = lwh

Volume of large  box = 3l*3w*3h = 27lwh

So we can see that the volume of the large box is 27 times larger.
