Please help me with my math question!

Felisa is creating a scrapbook of her family. A photo of her grandmother measures 3 inches by 5 inches. She enlarges it by a scale factor of 1.5 to place in the scrapbook. Then she enlarges the second photo by a scale factor of 1.5 to place on the cover of the scrapbook. What are the dimensions of the photo for the cover of the scrapbook?

3x5 enlarged 1.5 becomes 4.5 x 7.5 then enlarge again by 1.5 you 6.25 x 11.25 for the cover
