Answer and explanation:

If line segment AB is 25% then it is 25/100 or 1/4 of the longer line segment that is 100%

Let's assume the line segment AB is 8 inches in length(it is one quarter of the whole), then the longer line segment which is 100% will be 4 times line AB

4×8= 32 inches

Therefore if line segment AB is 8 inches long then the full length/ longer line will be 32 inches
