Similar Example: \[\Large \frac{\sqrt{72}}{\sqrt{2}} = \sqrt{\frac{72}{2}}\]

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

I'm using this rule \[\Large \frac{\sqrt{x}}{\sqrt{y}} = \sqrt{\frac{x}{y}}\]

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

make sure you reduce and simplify as much as possible

OpenStudy (countrygirl1431):

\[\sqrt{5}\]

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

15 over 5 is equal to 5?

OpenStudy (countrygirl1431):

i mean 3 after u reduce this it becomes 3/1

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

yes, \[\Large \frac{\sqrt{15}}{\sqrt{5}} = \sqrt{\frac{15}{5}} = \sqrt{\frac{3}{1}} = \sqrt{3}\]
