Similar Rectangles

When two rectangles are similar, the ratio of their corresponding sides is the same.

Side x of the largest rectangle corresponds to side 10 of the smallest rectangle.

Side 9 of the largest rectangle corresponds to side 6 of the smallest rectangle.

Therefore:

$\begin{gathered} (x)/(10)=(9)/(6) \\ \text{Multiply by 10:} \\ x=10\cdot(9)/(6)=(90)/(6) \\ x=15 \end{gathered}$

x = 15
