Answer
The ratio of the line segment is given as
AC : CB = 12 : 20 = 3 : 5
Explanation
The question wants us to state the ratio of the segment partitions and reduce the fractions.
The segment consists of AC and CB
AC = 12 in.
CB = 20 in.
AC : CB = 12 : 20
To now reduce this, we divide the ratio by 4. (12/4) = 3, (20/4) = 5
So,
AC : CB = 12 : 20 = 3 : 5
Hope this Helps!!!
