Answer:

7.5

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that corresponding sides of similar triangles are always in proportion.

So if we're told that triangles JKL and PQR are similar, we can go ahead and solve for t as shown below;

$\begin{gathered} (5)/(25)=(1.5)/(t) \\ 5t=37.5 \\ t=(37.5)/(5) \\ t=7.5 \end{gathered}$
