Points M and N were marked on the segment OP 50 cm long so that OM = 24cm, NP = 38cm.

Points M and N were marked on the segment OP 50 cm long so that OM = 24cm, NP = 38cm. What is the length of the segment MN?

The numbers show that point N is on O M.

First you need to find out what the length of the segment O N is equal to: O N = O P – N P = 50 – 38 = 12.

To find out what the length of the segment M N is equal to, you need: O M – O N = 24 – 12 = 12.

Answer: The length of the segment M N is 12.
