Question
$\frac{\sqrt{32}+\sqrt{48}}{\sqrt{8}+\sqrt{12}}=?$
  1. $\sqrt{2}$
  2. 2
  3. 4
  4. 8

Answer

  1. 4

Solution:

$\frac{\sqrt{32}+\sqrt{48}}{\sqrt{8}+\sqrt{12}}=\frac{\sqrt{4\times8}+\sqrt{4\times12}}{\sqrt{8}+\sqrt{12}}$

$=\frac{2\sqrt{8}+2\sqrt{12}}{\sqrt{8}+\sqrt{12}}=\frac{2\big(\sqrt{8}+\sqrt{12}\big)}{\sqrt{8}+\sqrt{12}}=2$

Hence, the correct answer is option (b).
