To divide 86√2, we can simplify the expression further.

First, let's divide the numerical part:

86 ÷ 4 = 21.5.

Now let's divide the square root part:

√2 ÷ √2 = 1.

Combining the results, we get:

21.5 * 1 = 21.5.

Therefore, the exact answer is 21.5. Answer: None of the above.

To divide the expression 86√2, we need to simplify it first.

To do that, remember that the square root (√) of a number can be written as an exponent of 1/2. So we rewrite 86√2 as 86(2^(1/2)).

Now, to divide it, we can cancel out the like terms.

Dividing 86 by 2 gives us 43.

Dividing 1 by 2 gives us 1/2.

Therefore, the answer is 43(2^(1/2)) or 43√2.

Since none of the provided options match this exact answer, none of the options are correct.
