How do you simplify #4sqrt11(2sqrt11+3sqrt5)#?

Answer 1

Eva Abramson

First get rid of the brackets

#=4sqrt11*2sqrt11+4sqrt11*3sqrt5#

#=4*2*(sqrt11)^2+4*3*sqrt(5*11)#

#=8*11+12*sqrt55=88+12sqrt55#

To simplify the expression 4√11(2√11+3√5), you can use the distributive property. Multiply 4√11 by both terms inside the parentheses:

4√11 * 2√11 = 8√(1111) = 8√121 = 811 = 88

4√11 * 3√5 = 12√(11*5) = 12√55

Therefore, the simplified expression is 88 + 12√55.
