We will calculate this by using ratios and because these two triangles are similar, which is very important.

Explanation:

We see that the FG = 9 corresponds to the VU = 21. Therefore, FH = 18 corresponds to the UW = x.

9 : 21 = 18 : x

x = (21*18)/9

x = 378/9

x = 42.

The correct answer is B. 42.
