The points L, M, N and O all lie on the same line segment, in that order, such
that the ratio of LM: MN: NO is equal to 5 : 3: 4. If LO = 48, find
MN.

pls help!!

Respuesta :

The length of the line segment MN is 12 units

How to determine the length of MN?

The ratios of the line segments are given as:

LM : MN : NO = 5 : 3 : 4

The length of LO is given as:

LO = 48

The above means that

MN = (MN Ratio)/(Total Ratio) * LO

So, we have

MN = 3/(5 + 3 + 4) * 48

Evaluate the product

MN = 12

Hence, the length of the line segment MN is 12 units
