Answer:

Dividing a whole number by a fraction you would just multiply the bottom number of the fraction by the whole number.

Step-by-step explanation:

(here is how to divide a fraction by a whole number, if you need help on that also.)

1. Turn the whole number into a fraction. ( ex: 2=2/1)

2. Multiply the fraction by the whole number fraction.

3. Multiply the tops together and the bottoms together

1. Arrange the equation

2. Keep the first fraction

3. Change the sign

4. flip the fraction

5. Multiply the tops together and the bottoms together

Answer:

$\huge\boxed{\bf\:2\sqrt{5} \:\: units }$

Step-by-step explanation:

We have a figure given in the shape of a square with a diagonal (x) passing from one edge to another. We need to find the measure of its diagonal if the side of the square is $\sqrt{10}$ units.

We know that, a square has all equal sides. Then, all the sides of the square will be equal to $\sqrt{10}$ units.

Now, let's find the diagonal.

To find the diagonal of a sqaure from one of its sides, we need to know the formula ⟶ Diagonal = side $\bf\:\sqrt{2}$ .

By using this formula,

$Diagonal (x)\\= side *\sqrt{2} \\= \sqrt{10} *\sqrt{2}\\ = \sqrt{5*2*2} \\= \boxed{\bf\:2\sqrt{5} \:units}$

→ The diagonal of the square = 2√5 units.

Find the exact length of the third side.<br> 5<br> 3

grandymaker [24]

I'm going to assume you want to find the third side of a triangle. We can use the pythagorean theorem to solve; a^2 + b^2 = c^2

a = 5

b = 3

c = ?

Solve.

5^2 + 3^2 = c^2

25 + 9 = c^2

34 = c^2

√34 = √c^2

5.8 ≈ c

Best of Luck!
