Question
The value of $\frac{\sqrt{48}+\sqrt{32}}{\sqrt{27}+\sqrt{18}},$ is:

Answer

  1. $\frac{4}{3}$
    Solution:
    $\sqrt{48}=\sqrt{16\times3}=4\sqrt3$
    $\sqrt{32}=\sqrt{16\times2}=4\sqrt2$
    $\sqrt{27}=\sqrt{9\times3}=3\sqrt3$
    $\sqrt{18}=\sqrt{9\times2}=3\sqrt2$
    Now, $\frac{\sqrt{48}+\sqrt{32}}{\sqrt{27}+\sqrt{18}}=\frac{4\sqrt3+4\sqrt2}{3\sqrt3+3\sqrt2}$
    $=\frac{4\big(\sqrt{\not3}+\sqrt{\not2}\big)}{3\big(\sqrt{\not3}+\sqrt{\not2}\big)}$
    $=\frac{4}{3}$
    Hence, correct option is (a).
