Answer:  C

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the perimeter of a rectangle , you need to use the formula  

P = 2l + 2w   where   P is the perimeter, l is the length, w is the width.

Input the dimensions, for each rectangle and solve for the P

P = 2(3) + 2(9)

P = 6 + 18

P = 24  

P = 2(5) + 2(11)

P = 10 + 22

P = 32

The smaller rectangle has a perimeter of 24 and the large rectangle has a perimeter of 32

The ratio will be    32 : 24  which breaks down to  4: 3
