To find the measure of side MN, we can use the fact that the side lengths of the original triangle and the dilated triangle are related by the scale factor.
In this case, the scale factor is 6, which means that the side lengths of the dilated triangle are 6 times the side lengths of the original triangle.
Since side M'N' measures 24, we can find the measure of side MN by dividing 24 by the scale factor:
MN = M'N' / scale factor
MN = 24 / 6
MN = 4
Therefore, the measure of side MN is 4.
