Sorry, kinda new to this topic

Answer 5

No problem, see marchremax, I can write 24/8 as

\(\cfrac{8 * 3}{8}\) right?

Answer 6

yeah

Answer 7

So, cancel out the 8's there and you get :

\(\cfrac{24}{8} = \cfrac{\color{blue}{8} \times \color{orange}{3}}{\color{blue}{8}} = \cfrac{\cancel{\color{blue}{8}} \times \color{orange}{3}}{\cancel{\color{blue}{8}} } = \color{orange}{3}\)

Answer 8

so what happen to the √ cause what im doing is √24over8 = √8x√3 over 8

Answer 9

So, you get :

\(\color{blue}{\sqrt{\cfrac{24}{8}}} \color{red}{=} \color{orange}{\sqrt{3}}\)
