what is 9.797958971132712 written as a fraction or sqrt96 answer as fraction

Question

anonymous · Answer

im bad at changing decimals to fractions and vice versa

ddcamp · Answer

Hmmm... 
sqrt(96) = sqrt(6)×sqrt(16) = 4×sqrt(6). 
I don't know if that can easily be written as a fraction.

anonymous · Answer

on the problem it said any answers written as decimals will not be graded or accepted

anonymous · Answer

what if you just took the sqrt of 96 and wrote it as an improper fraction....

ddcamp · Answer

Did it say to simplify the radical?
Because if that's what you're doing, you can leave some of the answer under the sqrt sign.

anonymous · Answer

it said to simplify it yeah $$\sqrt{96}$$ i saw the fraction thing and kinda latched on to it my mistake lol

ddcamp · Answer

For example:
To simplify sqrt(3×a²), you would say
sqrt(3×a²) = sqrt(3) × sqrt(a²) = a×sqrt(3)
Some of the answer is still under the radical, but it can't be simplified anymore.

anonymous · Answer
