Well, ..., The answer is 149.402 cubic meters.
It's been demonstrated that 0.5 cubic meters of helium can lift 0.502 kilograms.
Let 'X' equal the unknown volume thus gives us two equations: Xcm = 150kg & 0.5cm = 0.502kg
Expressed as a ratio we arrive at Xcm / 0.5cm = 150kg / 0.502kg
Solving for X we arrive at: (150kg / 0.50kg) * 0.5cm.
thus Xcm = 149.402 Cubic Meters
