Seems simple but i don't know what to do ? Express the radical in simplest form http://roads.advancedacademics.com/contentserver/content/roadssection/277559/questions/8quiz3/8quiz3_q8.gif

You just need to split the radical to both the numerator and denominator. Then, simply solve by factoring.

This means you would get the following in your next step: \[\sqrt{4}/\sqrt{6}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so sqrt of 2/3?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[2/\sqrt{6}\] rather

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes @bernardthe1st is right. From there, you do the following: \[2/\sqrt{6}\]\[2\times \sqrt{6}/\sqrt{6}\times \sqrt{6}\]\[2\sqrt{6}/6\]\[\sqrt{6}/\]Just multiply by sqrt6 over sqrt6 and then simplify.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Your final answer: \[\sqrt{6}/3\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

aw i put 2/6 & got it wrong hah oh well, thanks guys!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thats ryt @ragerun thank you for further elaboration. :))

OpenStudy (accessdenied):

A little tip, you can use \frac{numerator}{denominator} for fractions Sometimes the fraction in LaTeX looks better than the slash mark. lol

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Thank you @AccessDenied, I was trying to figure it out but I couldn't find it in the equation thing haha.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

im sorda new to this lol thanks (:
