Answer:
AD : DC is 2:3
Step-by-step explanation:
The parameters given are;
Point B ∈ AC
AB : BC = 2:1
Point D ∈ AB
AD : DB = 3:2
Therefore, whereby we sum the ratios, we have;
For AC
AB = 2/(2+1)×AC = 2/3×AC
BC = 1/3×AC
For AB
AD = 3/(3+2)×AB = 3/5×AB
DB = 2/5×AB
We are required to find AD:DC
Given that AD = 3/5×AB and AB = 2/3×AC
We have;
AD = 3/5×2/3×AC = 6/15 AC
DC = DB + BC = 2/5×AB + 1/3×AC = 2/5×2/3×AC + 1/3×AC = 4/15×AC + 1/3×AC
DC = 3/5×AC
AD : DC = 6/15 AC : 3/5×AC = 2:3.
