Problem 49918. Splitting Triangle - Problem the first

Consider an equilateral triangle sitting in Quadrant I as depicted in an example below:
This triangle is to be split into two regions (e.g., red and blue). Given the ratio between the two regions and the side of the triangle, determine the x coordinate of the line that splits the regions. The ratio between the regions (red to blue) is presented through the first two entries of the input. For example, if the ratio is 2 and 5, then these two numbers will be the first two numbers in the input. The last entry is the side of the triangle.
