Answers
The volume of two cubes is proportional to the cube of their sides
since you increased the side by a factor of 2
the volume will increase by a factor of 2^3
Can you find the side of the original cube knowing its surface area is 600 ?

100 because when you multiply 6 by 100 you will get 600
Ok here's a start.We originally have 6s^2 = 600, so s=__. Know what can we do from there?
