Answer:

[tex]JK=2.25\ units[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

If two figures are similar, then the ratio of its corresponding sides is proportional, and this ratio is called the scale factor

so

[tex]\frac{JK}{ST}=\frac{KL}{TU}[/tex]

substitute the given value and solve for JK

[tex]\frac{JK}{1.5}=\frac{6}{4}[/tex]

[tex]JK=(1.5)\frac{6}{4}[/tex]

[tex]JK=2.25\ units[/tex]
