The output voltage can be determined by the transformer relationship below.

V1N1=V2N2\dfrac{V_{1}}{N_{1}} = \dfrac{V_{2}}{N_{2}}

Where V1V_{1} is the input voltage and V2V_{2} is the output voltage. N1N_{1} is the turns of primary coil and N2N_{2} is the turns of secondary coil.

We are asked to find the V2V_{2} for the second case given in the problem but we do not know the numbers of turns for primary N1N_{1} or secondary N2N_{2}. What we can do is find the ratio of N2N_{2} to N1N_{1} from the first case and then solve for secondary V2V_{2} from the second case.
