Question

If a point C, lies on the line segment AB of length 6.3 cm, such that CB = 3.6

cm, then C divides AB in the ratio​

Answer 1

Answer:

answer is 2:3

Step-by-step explanation:

if AB= 6.3 , CB = 3.6 answer 2:3

Answer 2

The correct answer is 3:4.

Given: C divides line segment AB.

Length of AB = 6.3 cm.

Length of CB = 3.6 cm.

To Find: Ratio in which C divides AB.

Solution:

C divides AB it means C is somewhere in between A and B.

AB = AC + BC

AC = AB - BC

AC = 6.3 - 3.6

AC = 2.7

Ratio in which C divides AB = $\frac{AC}{CB}$

= $\frac{2.7}{3.6}$

= $\frac{3}{4}$

Hence, C divides AB in 3: 4 ratio.
