Question

a line segment State the radio of the segment partitions as be sure to reduce fractions

Answer 1

Answer

The ratio of the line segment is given as

AC : CB = 12 : 20 = 3 : 5

Explanation

The question wants us to state the ratio of the segment partitions and reduce the fractions.

The segment consists of AC and CB

AC = 12 in.

CB = 20 in.

AC : CB = 12 : 20

To now reduce this, we divide the ratio by 4. (12/4) = 3, (20/4) = 5

So,

AC : CB = 12 : 20 = 3 : 5

Hope this Helps!!!
