Let x to represent the length of the original shape, then the perimeter of the original shape is:

12 + 12 + x + x

24 + 2x

Now, we can build the equation to know the perimeter of the bigger image:

Its perimeter is:

60 + 60 + 5x + 5x =

120 + 10x

Now we can divide 120 + 10x between 24 + 2x, this way:

120 + 10x/24 + 2x = 5

The correct answer is A. The image's perimeter is 5 times larger.
