Rationalize the Denominator sqrt(14/3)
Hoot! You just asked your first question! Hang tight while I find people to answer it for you. You can thank people who give you good answers by clicking the 'Good Answer' button on the right!
Oh and an explination would be nice.
\[\sqrt{\frac{14}{3}}\] this expression?
yes
the radical splits to this:\[\frac{\sqrt{14}}{\sqrt{3}}\]
I understood that far.. Didn't know where to go from there.
then to get rid of the \(\sqrt{(..)}\) in th bottom; we multiply top and bottom by it
\[\frac{\sqrt{14}}{\sqrt{3}}*\frac{\sqrt{3}}{\sqrt{3}}=\frac{\sqrt{14*3}}{3}\]
Thanks man. That makes sense now.
\[\sqrt{14*3}=\sqrt{42}\] whih may or maynot simplify more :)
sqrt(42) is simplest
lol
\[\sqrt{42}\] is the simplest because 42 is a multiplication of 2 prime number :14 and 3. Amistre provided clear steps. :)
14 is not a prime no as it can be split as 2x7 !!!!!
@amistre after rationalising where has the 3 from the denominator vanished????
final answer shud b root42 ------- 3
