The missing side x would be 13. I figured this out by seeing how to get 21 from 3 which is 3 •7 then I did the same with all the others sides and they all added up to __•7 so all you have to do is divide 91 by 7 and you will get 13.

I hope this helped you understand!!:):) Sorry if you couldn’t understand how I explained it

\text{Hello there!}\\\\\text{A simple way to find the value of x is to find the scale factor}\\\\\text{When you flip the shapes to make it look exactly the same,}\\\text{you would see that the numbers are divisible to it}\\\\\text{Side 21 is congruent to side 3}\\\\\text{Divide 21 by 3 and you'll get 7 (1/7 sine we're going to a smaller shape)}\\\\\text{The x side is congruent to the 91 side}\\\\\text{Divide 91 by 7}\\\\91/7=13\\\\\large\boxed{x=13}
