So, first we input 6
24 - 6 = 18
So we now need to find the square root of 18
If you're allowed to use a calculator, the square root is 4.242
But if you don't, let's get as close as we can:
√(9 * 2)
Because the square root of 9 is 3:
3 * √2
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
A.Both of the students did the problem correctly.
Step-by-step explanation:
B. Nikki multiplied the fraction(8/3) to the items in the parentheses. Then multiplied each side with 3. Jon did the opposite. He first removed the fraction by multiplying each side by 3. Then he multiplied 2 to the items in the paranthesis.
C. I prefer Jon's method. Fractions can be tricky. I prefer to remove them as soon as possible. This time the items in the paranthesis had whole numbers. But had any of them been a fraction too, the problem would have gotten a lot more tricky and it would very easy to make a mistake or miscalculate something.
