Jeffrey was given a directed line segment and was asked to use a compass and straightedge to construct the point that divides the segment in the ratio 18 to 9. He said he would have to draw a ray and then construct 27 congruent segments along the ray. Tamara said it is not necessary to construct 27 congruent segments along the ray. Do you agree? If so, explain Tamara's shortcut. If not, explain why not.

[A.) No, I don't agree B.) Yes, I do agree ] as the ratio 18 to 9 is equivalent to the ratio ___ to 1.Therefore, it is only necessary to construct congruent segments along the ray.
