\[\frac{ \sqrt{16} }{ \sqrt{32} }\]
OpenStudy (anonymous):
it dpesnot come out right
OpenStudy (anonymous):
it comes outt o .70174892475686......
OpenStudy (e.cociuba):
So when I put \[\sqrt16 / \sqrt32 = 1.68\]

\[\sqrt{16} = 4\]
\[\sqrt{32} = 4\sqrt{2}\]
OpenStudy (anonymous):
\[\frac{ \sqrt{16} }{ \sqrt{32} } = \frac{ 4 }{ 4\sqrt{2} }\]
OpenStudy (anonymous):
simplify.

@sndrod09 yes it comes out as \[.7071067812 \] (which is in decimal)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
\[\frac{ \sqrt{16} }{ \sqrt{32} } = \frac{ 4 }{ 4\sqrt{2} }\]
\[ \frac{ 4 }{ 4\sqrt{2} }\left( \frac{ \sqrt{2} }{ \sqrt{2} } \right) = \frac{ 4\sqrt{2} }{ 4\times2 }\]
\[ \frac{ 4\sqrt{2} }{ 4\times2 } = \frac{ 4\sqrt{2} }{ 8 } = \frac{ \sqrt{2} }{ 2 }\]
OpenStudy (anonymous):
@sndrod09 do you understand?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yeah isee
