Think about how u did A
Here for B externally means that AB : AB extended outside is 2:3 so how would u achieve this?/
Hm, i tried using -2/3-2 AP and then doing OA + AP to find OP but it isn't working

So an example would have likely been given in the chapter. Are using the textbook?
hm yeah, but there isn't an explicit working for external division, so I'm a bit confused

Can someone show their working for (C) please

I don't really understand what they did here in the worked solutions. Why does it not use AG from part (A) and (B)?

which part exactly dont u understand. Finding the midpoint?
Using AG would not be a good idea as its just unnecessary, this question doesn't state use part a and b, it asks u to do something else.

I can’t write out a worked solution, but another way think about it is purely from a visual vector perspective. What you’re basically doing is adding 1 in the y direction to get to C, and then adding another half in the x and z directions to get to the middle of the 1x1 square. Then it’s just a simple magnitude calculation

The short answer is because parts (a) and (b) are irrelevant to part (c). That's why you can't use (a) or (b) to answer (c).
Here is a partial solution to (c), see if that helps.
