Question

draw a line segment of a length 8 cm and divide it in the ratio of 3:7 . Measure the two parts. ​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Length of line segment = 8 cm

given ratio = 3:7

$rational \: sum = 3 + 7 = 10$

$so \: length \: of \: first \: segment = \frac{3}{10} \times 8 = 2.4 \: cm \\ and \: length \: of \: second \: segment = \: \frac{7}{10} \times 8 = 5.6 \: cm$
