Question

If B is the midpoint of AC and the length of AC is 23.8 what is the legength of AB

Answer 1

Hey there,

So explain and to illustrate (how
`B` is the midpoint of
`AC` and the length of
`AC` is 23.8 what is the length of
`AB`

A-----------------B----------------C

So,
`\boxed{AC}` in the problem here is to be considered the (Whole area of this line).
`AC` is the whole thing.

So, what we do in this problem, we do . . .

23.8 ÷ 2 because we need to find what is
`AB`, so we will find the one half of it, which in this illustration is to be considered
`AB`

23.8 ÷ 2 =
`\boxed{11.9}`


`\boxed{AB=11.9}`

Hope this helps.
