The width of a rectangle is 5 times its length. If the width of the rectangle is doubled, then doubled again, the new perimeter is which percent of the original perimeter?

\n" ); document.write( "let length be x
\n" ); document.write( "width = 5x
\n" ); document.write( "perimeter = 2*(L+W)
\n" ); document.write( "=2*6x
\n" ); document.write( "=12x
\n" ); document.write( "..
\n" ); document.write( "2*2*5x= 20x
\n" ); document.write( "length = x
\n" ); document.write( "...
\n" ); document.write( "perimeter = 2*(20x+x)
\n" ); document.write( "=42x
\n" ); document.write( "Ratio = 42x/12x
\n" ); document.write( "2.5 *100 = 250 %
