Given:

The quadrilateral PQRS in the diagram is a parallelogram.

Let P'Q'R'S' be the image of PQRS after applying a dilation centered at a point O with scale factor 3.

So, each sides of a parallelogram P'Q'R'S' has enlarged with the scale factor 3.

Hence,

P'Q' = 3PQ

Therefore, the correct option is option B.
