$\frac{4}{\sqrt{21}} =\frac{4\sqrt{21}}{\sqrt{21}\sqrt{21}} =\frac{4\sqrt{21}}{21}$

I think

$\dfrac{4}{\sqrt{21}}$

is about as simple as this is going to get. For some reason teachers like the radicals in the numerator, so we multiply top and bottom by $\sqrt{21}$ and get

$\dfrac{4}{\sqrt{21}} \times \dfrac{\sqrt{21}}{\sqrt{21}} = \dfrac{4\sqrt{21}}{21}$

Answer: $\dfrac{4\sqrt{21}}{21}$

Prove if a and b are integers, prove that if a is even and b is even then a+b is even

jeka57 [31]

Answer:

Let a and b integers and suppose that are even numbers. Then, exist integers k and m such that $a=2k$ and $b=2m$ .

Then,

$a+b=2k+2m=2(k+m)=2n$

Since, k and m are integers then n=k+m is an integer. Then, since a + b is of the form 2 by an integer n, then a + b is an even number.
