i did that originally and got 30 + 6√3 divided by 25 - √9

Answer 5

Try to simplify it.

√9 simplified is 3 so i can simplify the expression to 30 + 6√3 divided by 22

Answer 7

OK, now simplify 30 + 6√3 divided by 22

Answer 8

i dont know how to simplify that

Answer 9

\[\frac{30 + 6\sqrt{3}}{22} = \frac{30 + 6\sqrt{3}}{2 \cdot 11} = \frac{30}{2 \cdot 11} + \frac{6\sqrt{3}}{2\cdot 11} = \frac{15}{11} + \frac{3\sqrt{3}}{11} = \boxed{\frac{15 + 3\sqrt{3}}{11}}\]

Answer 10

is that 3√3 in the box?

Answer 11

\[\Huge \boxed{\frac{15 + 3\sqrt{3}}{11}}\]
