how would you do the problem 112/5/114/5 ? i have to simplify it and my math book is not helping but i know the answer is
square root (but not square 5?) like fifth root of 1331 over 11 i just dont know how to get it
Simplify the following:
(11+2/5)/(11+4/5)
Put 11+4/5 over the common denominator 5. 11+4/5 = (5×11)/5+4/5:
(11+2/5)/((5×11)/5+4/5)
5×11 = 55:
(11+2/5)/(55/5+4/5)
55/5+4/5 = (55+4)/5:
(11+2/5)/((55+4)/5)
55+4 = 59:
(11+2/5)/(59/5)
Put 11+2/5 over the common denominator 5. 11+2/5 = (5×11)/5+2/5:
((5×11)/5+2/5)/(59/5)
5×11 = 55:
(55/5+2/5)/(59/5)
55/5+2/5 = (55+2)/5:
((55+2)/5)/(59/5)
55+2 = 57:
(57/5)/(59/5)
Multiply the numerator by the reciprocal of the denominator, (57/5)/(59/5) = 57/5×5/59:
(57×5)/(5×59)
(57×5)/(5×59) = 5/5×57/59 = 57/59:
Answer: | 57/59
Simplify the following:
(11+2/5)/(11+4/5)
Put 11+4/5 over the common denominator 5. 11+4/5 = (5×11)/5+4/5:
(11+2/5)/((5×11)/5+4/5)
5×11 = 55:
(11+2/5)/(55/5+4/5)
55/5+4/5 = (55+4)/5:
(11+2/5)/((55+4)/5)
55+4 = 59:
(11+2/5)/(59/5)
Put 11+2/5 over the common denominator 5. 11+2/5 = (5×11)/5+2/5:
((5×11)/5+2/5)/(59/5)
5×11 = 55:
(55/5+2/5)/(59/5)
55/5+2/5 = (55+2)/5:
((55+2)/5)/(59/5)
55+2 = 57:
(57/5)/(59/5)
Multiply the numerator by the reciprocal of the denominator, (57/5)/(59/5) = 57/5×5/59:
(57×5)/(5×59)
(57×5)/(5×59) = 5/5×57/59 = 57/59:
Answer: | 57/59
112/5 / 114/5 = multiply top/bottom by 111/5 =
[112/5 * 111/5] / 11 =
113/5 / 11 =
(113)1/5 / 11 =
(1331)1/5 / 11
Simplify the following:
(11^(2/5))/(11^(4/5))
Rationalize the denominator. (11^(2/5))/(11^(4/5)) = (11^(2/5))/(11^(4/5))×(11^(1/5))/(11^(1/5)) = (11^(2/5) 11^(1/5))/(11):
(11^(2/5) 11^(1/5))/(11)
Combine powers. (11^(2/5) 11^(1/5))/(11) = 11^(2/5+1/5-1):
11^2/5+1/5-1
Put 2/5+1/5-1 over the common denominator 5. 2/5+1/5-1 = 2/5+1/5-(5)/5:
11^2/5+1/5-(5)/5
2/5+1/5-(5)/5 = (2+1-5)/5:
11^(2+1-5)/5
2+1-5 = -2:
11^(-2/5)
Rationalize the denominator. 1/11^(2/5) = 1/11^(2/5)×(11^(3/5))/(11^(3/5)) = (11^(3/5))/(11):
Answer: | (11^(3/5))/(11)
