Do two boxes expand equally with temperature if one has a Hole?

[Frigus]

Suppose we have two boxes of same material and same size but one have a hole in it and if we raise the temperature with equal amount then does two box expand equally?

Hi.
Interesting. Let me clear the idea you seem to have.
There is a metal disk. We cut it apart with a small disk and a ring part and keep them assembled.
We heat them up. The diameter of the disk grows. Then we take the small disk out. Does the diameter of the disk, now the ring, shrink ?

It seems no change to me.
