Homework Help: physics

when a mass attached to a spring is released from rest 3.0 cm from its equilibrium position, it oscillates with a frequency f. If this mass were instead released from rest 6.0 cm from its equilibrium position, it would oscillate with frequency..
A.2f
B.sqrt 2f
C.f
D.f/2

I can do the math part, I am just unsure of what equation to use to obtain the answer. Thanks
