To find the product, we multiply 12−−√ by 5/6.
(12−−√)(5/6) can be written as (12√(−1))(5/6).
We can simplify this expression by rewriting √(−1) as "i", where i represents the imaginary unit.
So, (12−−√)(5/6) becomes (12i)(5/6).
To multiply complex numbers, we multiply the real parts and the imaginary parts separately.
In this case, the real parts are 12 and 5/6, and the imaginary parts are i.
Multiplying the real parts gives us (12)(5/6) = 60/6 = 10.
Multiplying the imaginary parts gives us i.
Therefore, the product of 12−−√ and 5/6 is 10i.
So, the product is a complex number.
