Solution:

Let starting map of youth center has Dimension (Preimage)

1 unit of y= k units

1 unit of x = t units

The new map of youth center which is 3 times larger than original(Image)

1 unit of y= 3 k units

1 unit of x = 3 t units

Image = 3 × Pre- image

The image is larger than Pre- image.

So, Scale of the new map = 3 × The original dimension of map.
