The small sign's perimeter is 36 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The scale factor between two figures is obtained by:

Scale = \frac{P_{l}}{P_{s}}

So,

We know that

Scale= 5:3\\P_l = 60\ in\\

Putting the values in the above equation of scale factor we get

\frac{5}{3} = \frac{60}{P_s}

Cross multiplication

5 * P_s = 60*3\\5P_s = 180

Dividing both sides by 5

\frac{5P_s}{5} = \frac{180}{5}\\P_s = 36

Hence,

The small sign's perimeter is 36 inches
