64/(3sqrt(4)) 10.667

OH OOPS JUST KIDDING THAT WAS SQUARED 4.

jesusisabiscuit, that doesn't look right — you've taken a square root in one place and a square in another, but in both places the original problem says "squared"

A- 6 B- 2/3 C- sqrt 2/3 D- 3/sqrt 2

6. whpalmer4

zink96, the problem is actually $\sqrt{8}/(3\sqrt{4})$, right?

7. anonymous

yeah

8. whpalmer4

Yeah, that's "square root", not "squared"! 4= 2*2 and 8 = 2*2*2, so the top simplifies to $2\sqrt{2}$ and the bottom simplifies to $3*2$ leaving $\sqrt{2}/3$ after canceling out the matching numbers on top and bottom.

Oh sorry thats what I meant. Thanks
