Question

divide a line segment of length 10 cm in the ratio 2:3 the length of their parts respectively are​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :-

The length of a line segment = 10 cm

To find:-

Divide the line segment in the ratio 2:3 ?

Solution:-

Given that

Given ratio = 2:3

Let they be 2X cm and 3X cm

Total length = 2X+3X = 5X cm

According to the given problem

The length of a linesegment = 10 cm

=> 5X = 10

=> X = 10/5

=> X = 2 cm

2X = 2×2 = 4 cm

3X = 3×2 = 6 cm

Method-2:-

Given ratio = 2:3

Total parts = 2+3 = 5

5 parts = 10 cm

1 part = 10/5 cm

=> 1 part = 2 cm

2 parts = 2×2 = 4 cm

3 parts = 3×2 = 6 cm

Answer :-

The lengths of the two parts are 4 cm and 6 cm

Answer 2

Answer:

Answer is 4cm and 6cm

Step-by-step explanation:

2:3

2+3=5

5 = 10

1 =10/5

1=2

2×2=4

2×3=6
