Question

A 35 cm line segment is divided into two parts in the ratio 4:3 . Find the length of each part.

Answer 1

Answer:

The ratio given is 4:3

Length of first part = 4/7 X 35

                                = 4 X 5 =  20 cm

Length of second part = 3/7 X 35 = 3X 5 = 15cm

Therefore, lengths of parts are 20cm and 15cm.
