(D) Given that $P-R-Q$ is a line segment where $R$ lies between $P$ and $Q$.We are given the ratio $\frac{PR}{PQ} = \frac{2}{7}$.Since $PQ = PR + RQ$,we have $RQ = PQ - PR$.Substituting the values,we get $\frac{PR}{RQ} = \frac{PR}{PQ - PR} = \frac{2}{7 - 2} = \frac{2}{5}$.This means $R$ divides $PQ$ in the ratio $2:5$ from $P$.However,the question asks for the ratio from $Q$,which is $QR:RP$.Therefore,$\frac{QR}{RP} = \frac{5}{2}$.Thus,$R$ divides $\overline{PQ}$ from $Q$ in the ratio $5:2$.

Given $P-R-Q$ and if $\frac{PR}{PQ} = \frac{2}{7}$,then $R$ divides $\overline{PQ}$ from $Q$ in the internal division ratio $\ldots \ldots \ldots \ldots$
