On the segment AB 6.9 m long, point O was marked at a distance of 2.8 m from point B.

On the segment AB 6.9 m long, point O was marked at a distance of 2.8 m from point B. How many segments of AO are larger than the segment OB?

1. Since point O is located at a distance of 2.8 m from point B, then OB = 2.8 m.

We calculate AO if AB is 6.9 m:

6.9 – 2.8 = 4.1 (m).

2. Now let’s compare AO and OB, finding the difference in the values of the lengths of these segments:

4.1 – 2.8 = 1.3 (m).

Answer: the AO segment is 1.3 m larger than the OB.
