Answer:

823.7 m²

Explanation:

Given the ratio of sides = 5 : 6, then

the ratio of area = 5² : 6² = 25 : 36

let x be the area of the larger prism then by proportion


(25)/(572) =
(36)/(x) ( cross- multiply )

25x = 36 × 572 ( divide both sides by 25 )

x =
(36(572))/(25) ≈ 823.7

The surface area of the larger prism is 823.7 ( nearest tenth )
