Question

draw a line segment of length 8 cm and divide it in the ratio 4:5​

Answer 1

Answer:

8/9×4=32/9

8/9×5=40/9

Answer 2

Answer:

let common multiple be x

=> line segment parts will be 4x and 5x.

so, 4x +5x = 8

9x =8

x = 8/9

so line parts will be, 4×8/9=32/9=>3.555....

and 5×8/9=40/9=>4.444.....
