To simplify the expression, we first simplify the numerator:
4√6 = 4 * √(2*3) = 4√2√3 = 4√2√3
Next, simplify the denominator:
√30 = √(2*15) = √2√15
Now rewrite the fraction in simplified form:
4√2√3 / √2√15
Rationalize the denominator by multiplying both the numerator and the denominator by √15:
(4√2√3 * √15) / (√2√15 * √15)
This simplifies to:
(4 * √30) / 15
The final simplified form is 4√30 / 15.
4√6 = 4 * √(2*3) = 4√2√3 = 4√2√3
Next, simplify the denominator:
√30 = √(2*15) = √2√15
Now rewrite the fraction in simplified form:
4√2√3 / √2√15
Rationalize the denominator by multiplying both the numerator and the denominator by √15:
(4√2√3 * √15) / (√2√15 * √15)
This simplifies to:
(4 * √30) / 15
The final simplified form is 4√30 / 15.

I apologize for the mistake in my previous response. Let me correct it.
Given expression: 4√6 / √30
To simplify, we first simplify the numerator:
4√6 = 4 * √6 = 4 * √(2*3) = 4 * √2 * √3 = 4√2√3
Next, simplify the denominator:
√30 = √(2*15) = √2 * √15
Now rewrite the fraction in simplified form:
4√2√3 / √2√15
Rationalize the denominator by multiplying both the numerator and the denominator by √15:
(4√2√3 * √15) / (√2√15 * √15)
This simplifies to:
(4√90) / 15
Further simplifying:
4√90 = 4 * √(9 * 10) = 4 * 3 * √10 = 12√10
Therefore, the final simplified form is 12√10 / 15, which can be further reduced by dividing both the numerator and the denominator by 3 to get:
4√10 / 5
Given expression: 4√6 / √30
To simplify, we first simplify the numerator:
4√6 = 4 * √6 = 4 * √(2*3) = 4 * √2 * √3 = 4√2√3
Next, simplify the denominator:
√30 = √(2*15) = √2 * √15
Now rewrite the fraction in simplified form:
4√2√3 / √2√15
Rationalize the denominator by multiplying both the numerator and the denominator by √15:
(4√2√3 * √15) / (√2√15 * √15)
This simplifies to:
(4√90) / 15
Further simplifying:
4√90 = 4 * √(9 * 10) = 4 * 3 * √10 = 12√10
Therefore, the final simplified form is 12√10 / 15, which can be further reduced by dividing both the numerator and the denominator by 3 to get:
4√10 / 5
