First of all, we need to remember thatif you have two rectangles that are similar, it means that thet have a relation of proportion between its sides... We are gonna make a draw:

I drew in blue the rectangle ABCD and in green the rectangle EFGH. Note that I change the ubication of the segments to make it proportional, but it doesn't change the answer.

Now, I make a relation:


\begin{gathered} (10.5)/(3.5)=(x)/(5) \\ 3=(x)/(5) \\ x=15 \end{gathered}

Finally, the answer is 15.
