jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

good

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

fill in the blank 847 = 121 times ______

OpenStudy (thefluffmuncher):

11*11=121

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

that's 121, I want you to factor 847

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

what goes in the blank?

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

121 times something = 847

OpenStudy (thefluffmuncher):

7

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

yes, so we can do this \[\Large \sqrt{847} = \sqrt{121*7}\] \[\Large \sqrt{847} = \sqrt{121}*\sqrt{7}\] \[\Large \sqrt{847} = ???\] I'll let you finish up the last part

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

I'm using the rule \[\Large \sqrt{x*y} = \sqrt{x}*\sqrt{y}\]

OpenStudy (thefluffmuncher):

so its \[\sqrt{847}=11*\sqrt{7}\]

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

you nailed it

OpenStudy (thefluffmuncher):

yess thanks
