Simplify square root of 0.75* square root of 4/5

$\sqrt{0.75} \cdot \sqrt{\frac{4}{5}}$

Step 1

Rewrite $\sqrt{\frac{4}{5}}$ as $\frac{\sqrt{4}}{\sqrt{5}}$ .

$\sqrt{0.75} \cdot \frac{\sqrt{4}}{\sqrt{5}}$

Step 2

Simplify the numerator.

Rewrite $4$ as $2^{2}$ .

$\sqrt{0.75} \cdot \frac{\sqrt{2^{2}}}{\sqrt{5}}$

Pull terms out from under the radical, assuming positive real numbers.

Multiply $\frac{2}{\sqrt{5}}$ by $\frac{\sqrt{5}}{\sqrt{5}}$ .

$\sqrt{0.75} \cdot \frac{2 \sqrt{5}}{\sqrt{5} \sqrt{5}}$

Raise $\sqrt{5}$ to the power of $1$ .

$\sqrt{0.75} \cdot \frac{2 \sqrt{5}}{{\sqrt{5}}^{1} \sqrt{5}}$

Raise $\sqrt{5}$ to the power of $1$ .

$\sqrt{0.75} \cdot \frac{2 \sqrt{5}}{{\sqrt{5}}^{1} {\sqrt{5}}^{1}}$

Use the power rule $a^{m} a^{n} = a^{m + n}$ to combine exponents.

$\sqrt{0.75} \cdot \frac{2 \sqrt{5}}{{\sqrt{5}}^{1 + 1}}$

Add $1$ and $1$ .

$\sqrt{0.75} \cdot \frac{2 \sqrt{5}}{{\sqrt{5}}^{2}}$

Rewrite ${\sqrt{5}}^{2}$ as $5$ .

Use $\sqrt[n]{a^{x}} = a^{\frac{x}{n}}$ to rewrite $\sqrt{5}$ as $5^{\frac{1}{2}}$ .

$\sqrt{0.75} \cdot \frac{2 \sqrt{5}}{{(5^{\frac{1}{2}})}^{2}}$

Apply the power rule and multiply exponents, ${(a^{m})}^{n} = a^{m n}$ .

$\sqrt{0.75} \cdot \frac{2 \sqrt{5}}{5^{\frac{1}{2} \cdot 2}}$

Combine $\frac{1}{2}$ and $2$ .

$\sqrt{0.75} \cdot \frac{2 \sqrt{5}}{5^{\frac{2}{2}}}$

Cancel the common factor of $2$ .

Cancel the common factor.

$\sqrt{0.75} \cdot \frac{2 \sqrt{5}}{5^{\frac{2}{2}}}$

Rewrite the expression.

$\sqrt{0.75} \cdot \frac{2 \sqrt{5}}{5^{1}}$

Evaluate the exponent.

$\sqrt{0.75} \cdot \frac{2 \sqrt{5}}{5}$

Step 5

Multiply $\sqrt{0.75} \frac{2 \sqrt{5}}{5}$ .

Combine $\sqrt{0.75}$ and $\frac{2 \sqrt{5}}{5}$ .

$\frac{\sqrt{0.75} (2 \sqrt{5})}{5}$

Combine using the product rule for radicals.

$\frac{2 \sqrt{0.75 \cdot 5}}{5}$

Multiply $0.75$ by $5$ .
