Answer: 4 times greater.

Explanation:

1. You have the following information given in the problem: One of the squares has a perimeter of 25 yards and the other one has a perimeter of 100 yards.

2. Therefore, to calculate how many times greater is the perimeter of the larger square, you must divide the perimeter of this one by the perimeter of the smaller square, as following:


(100yards)/(25yards)=4

Therefore, the perimeter of the larger square is 4 times greater than the perimeter of the smaller square.
