The question, in short
Points A, B, C, D lie in that order on one straight line, with AB = 30 cm and AC = 96 cm. Given BC = 3CD, work out the distance AD.
Summarised in our own words. Use the official paper for the exact wording and the diagram.
Solution · 3 marks
- 1BC = AC − AB = 96 − 30 = 66 cm
- 2CD = BC ÷ 3 = 66 ÷ 3 = 22 cm
- 3AD = AC + CD = 96 + 22 = 118
