Question 1104170: If points A, B, C and D and collinear, and C is the midpoint of AB and B is the midpoint of AD and the length of AD is 24, what is the length of CD? Answer by josgarithmetic(39620) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! As a start, draw what the description says.
From left to right on the line are points A, C, B, D.
Let AC=x=CB.
From this you find AB=2x, and BD=2x, and given is AD=24.
