FIGURE IS IN THE ATTACHMENT
GIVEN:

MP/PN=4/13
MO = 20.4 cm

In ∆ MNO, PQ || NO
MP / PN = MQ / QO
[ By  basic proportionality theorem]
MP / PN = MQ / (MO - MQ)

[ QO = MO - MQ]
4 /13 = MQ / (20.4 - MQ)
4(20.4 - MQ) = 13 MQ
81.6 - 4 MQ = 13 MQ
81.6 = 13 MQ +4 MQ
81.6 = 17 MQ

MQ = 81.6 / 17
MQ = 4.8 cm

HOPE THIS WILL HELP YOU...
