Answer:

27

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose that the dimensions of the rectangular prism are L, W and H.

Then the volume is V = L*W*H.

If you mean to increase EACH dimension by a factor of 3, then we' have

V = (3L)*(3W)*(3H), or V = 27 L*W*H.

The volume of the modified prism would be 27 times larger than that of the original prism.
