Question
Evaluate:
$\sqrt{3\frac{33}{289}}$

Answer

$\sqrt{3\frac{33}{289}}$
$=\sqrt{\frac{3\times289+33}{289}}$
$=\sqrt{\frac{867+33}{289}}$
$=\sqrt{\frac{900}{289}}$
$\begin{array}{c|c}2&900\\\hline2&450\\\hline3&225\\\hline3&75\\\hline5&25\\\hline5&5\\\hline&1\end{array}$
$\begin{array}{c|c}17&289\\\hline17&17\\\hline&1\end{array}$
$=\sqrt{\frac{\overline{2\times2}\times\overline{3\times3}\times\overline{5\times5}}{17\times17}}$
$=\frac{2\times3\times5}{17}$
$=\frac{30}{17}$
$=1\frac{13}{17}$
