Answer 2

first divide the segment into (2+3) = 5 segments

Answer 3

then mark the 2:3 point

Answer 4

the marked point is your answer

Answer 5

8,1

Answer 6

well done

Answer 7

I still kinda don't understand how number three is the exact point to determine the actual equation in the line segment

Answer 8

well this is a little hard to explain but I'll try

2:3 can be read as 2 parts left segment for every 3 parts of the right segment

so there must be 5 segments total
making the left segment (2/5) of the whole line
and the right segment (3/5) of the whole line

Answer 9

Kay, got that, but the real question is why choose the 2 part of 2/5 to determine the answer? I mean, how do we know to look there?

Answer 10

since the 2 is on the left side of the ratio we pick the point that makes the left side 2 and the right side 3

Answer 11

Ohhhhh
