Given:

It is given that

C divides AB so that, AC:AB = 3:8

To find the wrong option among the given options.

Let us take,

AB = [tex]8x[/tex] unit

AC = [tex]3x[/tex] unit

So,

CB = [tex]8x-3x[/tex]

CB = [tex]5x[/tex] unit

So, we can conclude that,

AC: CB: AB = 3:5:8

Hence,

The wrong option is C i.e, Point C is [tex]\frac{3}{5}[/tex] of way from point A to point B.
