Wait... The length of AC is 30, and the length of AB is on-fourth the length of AC? Then the answer is not one of the ones you have listed.

Answer 4

ohh i see , uhmm how do you solve the problem? can you please explain it to me.

Answer 5

Well, if the length of AB is one fourth the length of AC, that means:

\[AB = \frac{1}{4}AC = \frac{AC}{4} = AC \div 4\]

That's pretty much it if you have the length of AC.
