SOLUTION: Points J, K, L and M are collinear points. K is the midpoint of JM, and L is the midpoint of KM. If JM=36, find JL.

K being the midpoint of the 36 unit segment JM divides JM into two 18 unit segments. KM is therefore 18 units. L is the midpoint of KM, so KL and LM are each 9 units. JL is the sum of JK and KL.
