To divide 2√65 by √5, we can rationalize the denominator by multiplying both the numerator and denominator by √5:
(2√65 * √5) / (√5 * √5)
Simplifying the numerator:
2√325 / 5
Now we simplify by finding the square root of 325:
2√(5 * 65) / 5
2√(5 * 13 * 5) / 5
2√(25 * 13) / 5
2(5√13) / 5
The 5 in the numerator and denominator cancels out:
2√13
Therefore, 2√65 / √5 simplifies to 2√13.
