Answer:

  (b)  137.32 cm³

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of the larger similar container will be the cube of the scale factor times the volume of the original container. That is, the new container will have a volume that is 1.12³ = 1.404928 times the volume of the original.

The amount of increase will be 0.404928 times the original volume, or ...

  0.404928 × 339.12 cm³ = 137.32 cm³

The new cans will hold 137.32 cm³ more.
