Answer:

9 3/4 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

If we are finding how much taller Sara is, we need to subtract

6 ft 3 3/4 - 5 ft 6in

I like to line up vertically

6 ft 3 3/4

- 5 ft 6in

----------------

We need to borrow 1 ft and make it 12 inches

5 ft 3+12 3/4

- 5 ft 6in

----------------

5 ft 15 3/4

- 5 ft 6in

----------------

0 9 3/4 inches

What is the square root of 5 divided by the square root of 15 and simplify and in fraction form

ozzi

Answer:

$\sqrt{\frac{1}{3} }$

$\frac{\sqrt{3} }{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The expression $\frac{\sqrt{5} }{\sqrt{15} }$ can be simplified by first writing the fraction under one single radical instead of two.

$\frac{\sqrt{5} }{\sqrt{15} } = \sqrt{\frac{5}{15} }$

5/15 simplifies because both share the same factor 5.

It becomes $\sqrt{\frac{5}{15} } = \sqrt{\frac{1}{3} }$

This can simplify further by breaking apart the radical.

$\sqrt{\frac{1}{3} } = \frac{\sqrt{1} }{\sqrt{3} } = \frac{1}{\sqrt{3} }$

A radical cannot be left in the denominator, so rationalize it by multiplying by √3 to numerator and denominator.

$\frac{1}{\sqrt{3} } *\frac{\sqrt{3} }{\sqrt{3} } =\frac{\sqrt{3} }{3}$
