Answer: Let point A is at 8 and B is at 16.
P is the point where the line segment in the ratio 3: 1.
This is also where P is
rds the distance from A to B
The total distance is |16 - 81 = 8
The distance between point AB is 8 units.
of 8 is 6.
So, the point P is 6 units from A.
8 +6=14
P is at 14
Hence, the coordinates of the point P is 14.
This also works if you go 1/3 from B.
