look for busswords: rash prominent in axilla and groin = Pastia Lines = Scarlet Fever (other clues that would make it easier are strawberry tongue, sandpaper like rash, GAS positive hystory, etc)
cough, coryza, conjuntivitis, koplic spots = Measles
But sure, both have similar clinical presentation..

it's scarlet fever for sure...measels can cause similar signs but the question push us to think about scarlet fever like saying rash at the axilla and groin ,the enlarged tonsils with the grayinsh exudates...
