Point A is located on a straight line between points B and C. The length of the segment of the segment CB is 3 cm longer than the length of the segment AC. Find the length of the segment AB.

Point A divides the segment BC into two parts.

BC = AB + AC.

The difference between the length of the entire segment BC and the length of the segment AC is segment AB.

AB = BC – AC.

If the length of the segment of the entire segment CB is 3 cm longer than the length of the segment AC, then these 3 cm are the length of the segment AB.

Answer: the length of the segment AB = 3 cm.
