Answer:

b =
(56)/(3)

Explanation:

since the rectangles are similar then the ratios of corresponding sides are in proportion , that is


(QT)/(LO) =
(TS)/(ON) ( substitute values )


(12)/(b) =
(27)/(42) ( cross- multiply )

27b = 504 ( divide both sides by 27 )

b =
(504)/(27) =
(504)/(27) =
(56)/(3)
