Simplify square root of 625/10000+1/2

Answer 1

First, simplify the fractions inside the square root:

625/10000 = 1/16

So, the expression becomes:

√(1/16 + 1/2)

= √(1/16 + 8/16)

= √(9/16)

= 3/4

Therefore, the simplified square root of 625/10000 + 1/2 is 3/4.

Answer 2

On the other hand, the spacing makes me think we have
√(625/10000) + 1/2 = 25/100 + 1/2 = 1/4 + 1/2 = 3/4

oddly enough, the result is the same!

Answer 3

Indeed, you are correct. The spacing in the original expression can be interpreted in the way you have done it. Both interpretations of the expression yield the same result of 3/4. Thank you for pointing that out!
