Question
Rationalise the denominator of the following
`(3sqrt2)/sqrt5`
Advertisements
Solution
We know that rationalization factor for `1/sqrta` is `sqrta`. We will multiply numerator and denominator of the given expression `(3sqrt2)/sqrt5` by `sqrt5` to get
`(3sqrt2)/sqrt5 xx sqrt5/sqrt5 = (3sqrt2 xx sqrt5)/(sqrt5 xx sqrt5)`
`= (3sqrt10)/5`
Hence the given expression is simplified to `(3sqrt10)/5`.
