Answer:

w = x = 36

Step-by-step explanation:

In the largest triangle, the longest side is x

The shortest side = 18

In the smaller triangle the longest side is 6

The shortest side is 3

You can set up a ratio

x/18 = 6/3                             Divide the right side by 3

x/18 = 2                                Multiply both sides by 18

18 *x / 18 = 2 * 18

x = 36

I think the answer is 6. The reason I think the answer is 6, is because if you divide 18 and 3, your answer will be 6. Keep in mind I might be wrong. Maybe 3 is correct, not quite sure. Maybe try both. Sorry, this probably wasn’t much help.
