The correct option is D.

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for perimeter of a square with side length s is

P=4s

Let the side of new square is tripled of given square. The side length is 3s.

The new perimeter is

$P_1=4\times 3s$

P_1=12s

Let the new perimeter is k times of the previous perimeter.

$P_1=k\times P$

$12s=k\times 4s$

k=3

The perimeter is three times as great.

Therefore the correct option is D.
