#72ft#

Explanation:

First of all, this question is stating that each of the sides of the rectangle is growing by a factor of #1.5# times. If you multiplied each of the sides by #1.5# and added them together, this would still result in the perimeter growing by #1.5# times. To solve the question, simply multiply the perimeter by #1.5#, and you will get #72 ft.# Hope this helps. :)
