The coordinates of the points $A, B, C$ are $(x_1, y_1)$,$(x_2, y_2)$,$(x_3, y_3)$ and $D$ divides the line $AB$ in the ratio $l : k$. If $P$ divides the line $DC$ in the ratio $m : k + l$,then the coordinates of $P$ are

  • A
    $\left( \frac{k x_1 + l x_2 + m x_3}{k + l + m}, \frac{k y_1 + l y_2 + m y_3}{k + l + m} \right)$
  • B
    $\left( \frac{l x_1 + m x_2 + k x_3}{l + m + k}, \frac{l y_1 + m y_2 + k y_3}{l + m + k} \right)$
  • C
    $\left( \frac{m x_1 + k x_2 + l x_3}{m + k + l}, \frac{m y_1 + k y_2 + l y_3}{m + k + l} \right)$
  • D
    None of these
