Answer:  51

Work Shown:

Use the converse of the SSS (side side side) similarity theorem. This says that if two triangles are similar, then their sides are in proportion

OH/WI = HJ/IM ... see the attached diagram below

48/64 = x/68

48*68 = 64x ... cross multiply

3264 = 64x

64x = 3264

x = 3264/64 .... divide both sides by 64

x = 51
