so what they mean by "similar" is just that the shapes are the same but different sizes. since we have the measurement for sides PM, MN and TQ, we can figure it out. we have to think of it as a ratio. so PM/TQ = MN/QR. if we plug the amounts in its 57/23 = 40.3/QR. then we cross multiply. so thats 23 x 40.3 which is 926.9. then we divide 926.9 by 57 which is 16.2614035. rounding to the nearest tenth is 16.3
