@jim_thompson5910 @ParthKohli help me out???
Parth (parthkohli):
Can you multiply both numerator and denominator by \(\sqrt{30}\)?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
@ParthKohli can you walk me through this? i cant do it to save my life :-(
Parth (parthkohli):
Do you know that if you multiply numerator and denominator by the same number, the fraction remains the same?
Still Need Help?

@ParthKohli i believe so..
Parth (parthkohli):
Yeah, you should, because it does. :-)
For example if you have\[\dfrac{2}{3}\]and you multiply both numerator and denominator by 2, then you have the same number essentially\[\dfrac{2 }{3}= \dfrac{2 \times 2}{3 \times 2} = \dfrac{4}{6}\]
Parth (parthkohli):
Getting my point?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
@ParthKohli yes haha
Parth (parthkohli):
So in your fraction, you can multiply both the numerator and denominator by \(\sqrt{30}\)

@ParthKohli ok...
Parth (parthkohli):
Do you need further help?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
@ParthKohli yes, please.
Parth (parthkohli):
\[\dfrac{4\sqrt6}{\sqrt{30} } = \dfrac{4\sqrt{6} \times \sqrt{30}}{\sqrt{30} \times \sqrt{30}}\]Do you see it?
Parth (parthkohli):
You need to simplify that.
