Question

What are the square roots of 64/144 ?

Answer 1

Answer: third option

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve the problem you must apply the proccedure shown below:

- Descompose the numerator and the denominator of the given fraction into its prime numbers:

$64=2*2*2*2*2*2\\144=2*2*2*2*3*3$

Then you can rewrite:

$64=2^6\\144=2^4*3^2$

Then:

$\±\sqrt{\frac{{2^6}}{{2^4*3^2}}}=\±\frac{2^3}{2^2*3}=\±\frac{8}{4*3}=\±\frac{8}{12}$

Therefore, the answer is: $-\frac{8}{12}\ and\ \frac{8}{12}$

Answer 2

Answer:

The correct answer is option 3

-8/12 and 8/12
