It is known that the segment DB is 5 times less than the segment AD. Find the length of the segment AB if AD = 135 cm?

Let’s solve this task in steps and explain each of them in detail.
1) 135 * 5 = 675 centimeters – the length of the segment DB, since its length is five times greater than the length of the segment AD, and the length of the segment AD = 135 centimeters;
2) 675 + 135 = 810 centimeters – the length of the segment AB, since it consists of the lengths of the segment AD equal to 135 centimeters and the length of the segment DB equal to 675 centimeters.
Answer: the length of the segment AB = 810 centimeters.
