Aubrey claims that if the dimensions of the parallelogram shown are doubled, then the area of the larger parallelogram will be 4 times more than the original. Which statement about her claim is completely true?

A parallelogram with a base of 6 inches and height of 3 inches. A side has a length of 5 inches.
Aubrey is correct because the area of the new parallelogram is 12 (6) = 72 square inches. The original area is 18 square inches. Since 4 (18) = 72, the new parallelogram has 4 times the area of the original.
Aubrey is correct because the area of the new parallelogram is 10 (7) = 70 square inches. The original area is 18 square inches. Since 4 (18) = 72, it is about 4 times larger than the original.
Aubrey is incorrect because if one doubles each dimension, then the area will automatically be doubled as well. The original area is 18 square inches so the new parallelogram will have an area of 2 (18) = 36, or two times more than the original.
Aubrey is incorrect because if one doubles each dimension, then the area will automatically be doubled as well. The original area is 30 square inches so the new parallelogram will have an area of 2 (30) = 60, or 2 times more than the original.
