In triangle OABOAB, CC is the mid-point of OAOA, and DD on CBCB satisfies CD:DB=2:3\overrightarrow{CD}:\overrightarrow{DB}=2:3. Given OC=c\overrightarrow{OC}=\mathbf{c} and CB=b\overrightarrow{CB}=\mathbf{b}, the point EE on ABAB satisfies OE=mOD\overrightarrow{OE}=m\overrightarrow{OD} and AE=nAB\overrightarrow{AE}=n\overrightarrow{AB}.
Find two expressions for OE\overrightarrow{OE} and hence find AEEB\dfrac{AE}{EB}.
