Point A belongs to segment BM, BA = 25 cm, segment AM is 9cm less than segment BA. Find the length of segment BM.

1) Let us find out the length of the AM part of the BM segment, if it is known that it is 9 cm less than the BA part of the AM segment, and the BA part of the BM segment is 25 cm.

AM = 25 – 9 = 16 cm.
