The length of the segment CD is 40.5% of the length of the segment AB. Find CD if AB = 16.8 meters.

1. Let’s compose the percentage relative to the initial data:

100% = 16.8 m;

45.5% = x m.

2. Find the percentage by solving the equation:

100 * x = 16.8 * 45.5;

100 * x = 764.4;

x = 7.644.

Answer: The length of the CD segment is 7.644 cm.
