A. It will be half of the original size.
B. It will be the same as the original size.
C. It will be two times the original size.
D. It will be one-fourth the original size.
It is because, it is directly proportional to the dimensions. Perimeter of Original figure = 2(4+6) = 2(10) = 20 Perimeter of Final figure = 2(2+3) = 2(5) = 10
