I think it's
try to simplify the sqrts so
to simplify sqrt 75, sqrt(25 x 3), / sqrt (3)
(the sqrt of 25 is 5) so you get 5 sqrt(3) / sqrt(3)
the sqrt (3's) cancel each other out, sqrt 3 / sqrt 3 = 1
which leaves you with 5
so in other words
sqrt (25x3) / sqrt (3)
5 sqrt (3) / sqrt (3) =
5

5â9 / â9 =
5 x 3 / 3 =
15 / 3 =

Sqrt 75 = sqrt 25 * sqrt 3 = 5 * SQRT3

sqrt(75) = sqrt(3x25) = 5sqrt(3)
5sqrt(3)/sqrt(3) = 5
