Answer:
9 is (2/9) of the way from A = 5 to B = 23.
Step-by-step explanation:
Note that there are 23-5, or 18, units separating 5 and 23.
2/9 of that distance is (2/9)(18), or 4.
Adding 4 to 5, we get 9.
9 is (2/9) of the way from A = 5 to B = 23.
If this is not clear, I'd suggest you draw this situation and prove to yourself that 9 is (2/9) of the way from A = 5 to B = 23.
