copy and past image into another box same size and location

Indesign CS5 Mac

Have a lage document with portraits - 1 of the portraits needs to come out and need to shift them over. In Quark you could copy and past image into another image box and get same scale and X&Y location. I have tried the direct selection tool copied the image and paste into the empty box next to it but the scale is off.

Is there a work around this in Indesign.
