The question is slightly ambiguous with regard to the mass. We're told that "their mass triples".

Does that mean that the product of the two masses triples? The mass of each object triples?

The mass of one object triples?

We're going to assume that each mass triples.

The original force of gravity between the two objects is G[ M1 M2 / R2 ].

The new force is G[ 3M1 3M2 / (2R)2 ] = 9/4 times the original force.

So there you have it. The force becomes greater by a factor of 2.25 .
