Question

A student wants to divide a line segment 'AB' in some ratio. If he draws a ray 'AX' so that '/_BAX' is an acute angle and mark 15 points on ray 'AX' at equal distances, then the ratio in which the line segment 'AB' is divided, can be​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

The line is to be divided in 2:3

Let the parts of line be 2x and 3x

2x=x+x

So 2x has 2 equal parts.

3x=x+x+x

So 3x has 3 equal parts.

So a total of 5 equal parts are needed
