Question

AB:BD = 3:4 AC:CD = 3:2 Work out AB:BC:CD

Answer 1

Answer:

15:6:14

Step-by-step explanation:

AB:BD is split into a total of 3+4=7 parts.

AC:CD is split into a total of 3+2=5 parts.

So, if the two ratios are put on a number line together with the points A, B, C, and D, the number line would be split into a total of 35 parts (the LCM of 7 and 5).

AB would be (3/7)*35=15.

CD would be (2/5)*35=14

BC would be 35-(15+14)=6

So, the ratio is 15:6:14.
