The Volume of Box B is:

1500 cubic meters.

The volume of Box A is: 12 cubic meters.

Also, we are given that:

Box B is similar to box A.

and in order to create box B the dimensions of box A were multiplied by five.

This means that:

Length(L), Breadth(B) and Height(H) of the box A were multiplied by 5.

Hence, the volume of Box B is:

5L×5B×5H

=125 (L×B×H)

=125×Volume of Box A.

=125×12

=1500 cubic meters.

Hence, the volume of Box B is:

1500 cubic meters.
