The length of AD is 75% of the length of AB and the length of CB is 60% of the length of AB.

The length of AD is 75% of the length of AB and the length of CB is 60% of the length of AB. What percentage is the length of the segment CD of the length of the segment AB?

AB – 100%

The segment AB is divided into three segments by points C and D.

AD – 75% of the length AB.

AD + DB = AB.

75% + x% = 100%.

x = 100 – 75 = 25% – segment DВ.

CB – DB = CD.

60 – 25 = 35% – CD segment.

You can use line segment CB to calculate the length of segment CD.

CB – 60% of the length AB.

AC + CB = AB.

x% + 60% = 100%.

x = 100 – 60.

AC = 40%.

AD = 75%.

CD = AD – AC.

CD = 75% – 40% = 35%.
