Q5:

$\frac{\sqrt{3x^2y^3}}{4\sqrt{5xy^3}}$

$\frac{\sqrt{3}xy\sqrt{y}}{4\sqrt{5}y\sqrt{x}\sqrt{y}}$

Cancel off $\sqrt{x}$ :

$\frac{\sqrt{3}y\sqrt{x}\sqrt{y}}{4\sqrt{5}y\sqrt{y}}$

Cancel off $y:$

$\frac{\sqrt{3}\sqrt{x}\sqrt{y}}{4\sqrt{5}\sqrt{y}}$

Cancel off $\sqrt{y} :$

$\frac{\sqrt{3}\sqrt{x}}{4\sqrt{5}}$

Multiply $\sqrt{5}$ on the numerator and denominator:

$\frac{\sqrt{3}\sqrt{x}\sqrt{5}}{4\sqrt{5}\sqrt{5}}$

$\frac{\sqrt{15}\sqrt{x}}{20}$
