Question

If the ratio of AB to BC is 11:6, at what fraction of AC is point B located? Round to the nearesthundredth, if necessary.

Answer 1

For this case we know that the ratio of AB to BC is 11:6 and we can set up the following ratio:

`(AB)/(AC)=(11)/(6)`

And we want to identify what fraction of AC is point B located

We can assume that the lenght of AC is lower than AB

So then we can answer this problem with this operation:

`(6)/(11)=0.545`

And the answer for this case would be 0.545
