If `vec(a),vec(b),vec(c)` are the position vectors of the points A, B, C respectively such that `3vec(a)+5vec(b)=8vec(c)` then find the ratio in which C divides AB.

Answer» `3vec(a)+5vec(b)=8vec(c)`
`:.vec(c)=(3vec(a)+5vec(b))/(8)`
`=(3vec(a)+5vec(b))/(3+5)=(5vec(b)+3vec(a))/(5+3)`
`:.vec(c)` divides AB internally in the ratio `5:3`
