A vector diagram showing a triangle OAB. Vector OA is labeled 'a' and vector OB is labeled 'b'.

OA⃗=a \vec{OA} = \mathbf{a} OA=a OB⃗=b \vec{OB} = \mathbf{b} OB=b

P P\,P is the point on AB AB\,AB such that AP:PB=3:2AP:PB = 3:2AP:PB=3:2

OP⃗=k(2a+3b) \vec{OP} = k(2\mathbf{a} + 3\mathbf{b}) OP=k(2a+3b)

Find the value of kkk.
