Answer:

12/15 acres of land

Step-by-step explanation:

Total measure of land = 2 2/5acres

Total brothers = 3

Amount of acres each brothers will receive = Total measure of land/Total brother

Amount of acres each brothers will receive = (2 2/5)/3

Amount of acres each brothers will receive = 2 2/5 ÷ 3

Amount of acres each brothers will receive = 12/5 ÷ 3

Amount of acres each brothers will receive = 12/5 * 1/3

Amount of acres each brothers will receive = 12/15

Hence each brother will receive 12/15 acres of land

What’s the geometric mean of 3 square roots of 5 and 5 square roots of 5

navik [9.2K]

Answer:

5√3

Step-by-step explanation:

The geometric mean (GM) of two numbers x and y is the square root of their product.

Thus, the GM of x and y is √(xy).

The GM of 3√5 and 5√5

= √(3√5 × 5√5)

= √[3 × 5 × (√5)²]

= √(3 × 5 × 5)

= √(3 × 5²)

= 5√3
