Answer 2

Hence, the value of AP:AB is 3:7 (option 3).

Given,

P divides AB in the ratio 3:4.

To find,

The ratio: AP:AB.

Solution,

We can easily solve this problem by following the given steps.

According to the question,

We have the following statement:

P divides AB in the ratio 3:4.

Now, let's take AP to be 3x and PB to be 4x.

So,

AB = AP+PB

AB = 3x+4x

AB = 7x

Now, finding the ratio of AP to AB

AP/AB = 3x/7x

AP/AB = 3/7

Or in other words, the ratio of AP:AB is 3:7.

Hence, the value of AP:AB is 3:7.
