Can someone please help to explain this?

Answer:
[tex]\frac{PQ}{DE}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{4}{6}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
Δ PQR ~ Δ DEF
Then the ratio of corresponding sides are equal
The corresponding letters in the names of the triangles gives the corresponding sides.
Thus PQ/DE, QR/EF, PQ/DF
In this case
[tex]\frac{PQ}{DE}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{4}{6}[/tex]
