What is 2 3/2 equal to?
kati45 [8]

Answer:

  (a)  √8

Step-by-step explanation:

You want to know the radical equivalent to 2^(3/2).

<h3>Indices</h3>

The relationship of indices to radicals is ...

  \large{\sqrt[n]{a^m}}={a^{\frac{m}{n}}

<h3>Application</h3>

The given expression can be rewritten as ...

  2^{\frac{3}{2}}=\sqrt[2]{2^3}=\boxed{\sqrt[2]{8}}

__

<em>Additional comment</em>

When the index of the radical is 2, it is usually left off. The radical can be simplified by removing the perfect square factor.

  \sqrt[2]{8}=\sqrt{8}=2\sqrt{2}

Roman55 [17]

Answer:

Chelsea can make 3 \frac{1}{2} batches of icing with 7/8 pounds of butter.

Step-by-step explanation:

7/8 ÷ 1/4  (reciprocate 1/4 to replace division sign with multiplication sign)

= 7/8 x 4/1

= 28/8

= 7/2

= 3 \frac{1}{2}

This means that Chelsea can make 3 \frac{1}{2} batches of icing with 7/8 pounds of butter.

I hope this helps :)
