Question

Express in simplest radical form.
start fraction, square root of, 40, end square root, divided by, 6, end fraction
40/6
​

​

Answer 1

Start by simplifying the numerator:

√40 = √(4*10) = √4 * √10 = 2√10

Now rewrite the expression:

(2√10)/6

Since 2 divides both 2 and 6, we can simplify:

(1√10)/3

So, the expression in simplest radical form is √10/3.
