Answer:

B.14.6

Explanation:

To answer this question, it is best to sketch out the scenario, to get a better understanding of the question. Please look at the image for reference.

Make point M anywhere between the N and O on the line NO.

Looking at the sketch, an equation can be made:

NM + MO = NO

Substituting the values for MO and NO:

NM + 12.3 = 26.9

NM = 26.9 - 12.3

NM = 14.6

Point M is between points N and O on NO Find the length of NM if MO = 12.3 and NO-example-1
