simplify 3msqrt25mn^2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[3m \sqrt{25mn ^{2}}\] which terms inside the square root can be square rooted?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

25

OpenStudy (anonymous):

and?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

mn^2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

only the "n^2" can be square rooted the "m" is by itself. where "m" times "n^2". so since we know that "25" and "n^2" can be square rooted. Square root them and bring them outside the square root then simplify.

165n√m thats what i get but it doesnt match the answers

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you forgot the "3m" that is already on the outside. The square root of "25" is "5" and the square root of "n^2" is "n". When you bring them outside the square root it should look like this:\[3m5n \sqrt{m}\]now how do you simplify the terms outside the square root?
