Answer: 4 centimeters

Explanation:

Given: In the image, shape JKLM is similar to shape PQRS.

We know that if two shapes are similar then their corresponding sides are proportional, therefore we have


(QR)/(KL)=(PQ)/(JK)\\\\\Rightarrow(QR)/(24)=(6)/(36)\\\\\Rightarrow QR=(24*6)/(36)\\\\\Rightarrow QR=4

Hence, the measure of side QR = 4 centimeters
