Question

On the number line above, point L (not
shown) is located on line segment JK so that
JL = LK. What is the position of point L?

Answer 1

The position of point L is halfway between points K and L

How to determine the position?

The line segment is given as:

JK

This means that the endpoints of the line are:

J and K

Also, we have:

JL = LK

So, we have:

JK = JL + LK

Substitute JL = LK

JK = JL + JL

This gives

JK = 2JL

Divide by 2

JL = 1/2 JK

Hence, the position of point L is halfway between points K and L
