Point B should be joined to ( 8 + 3 ) = 11 i.e A11.
Hope it helps !!

Point B should be joined with A₁₁
To divide a line segment AB in the ratio 3:8
Step1 : Draw a line segment AB of some length
Step 2 : Draw a line segment AX such that ∠BAX is an acute angle
Step 3: Take 11 points on AX of Equal length one by one ( consecutively)
A₁ , A₂ , A₃ , ... , A₁₁
Step 4 : Join 11th Point with B as a straight line
Step 5 : Draw a line parallel to line drawn in step 4 such that it passes through 3rd point of step 3 and intersect AB at M
M divides AB in to 3 : 8 Ratio.
11 points are required
Hence point B should be joined with A₁₁
