\(\frac{(\sqrt {3} + \sqrt {5})(\sqrt {5} + \sqrt {2})}{\sqrt {2} + \sqrt {3} + \sqrt {5}}\) = ?
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 4
We know that \(\sqrt {3}\) = 1.7
\(\sqrt {2}\) = 1.4
\(\sqrt {5}\) = 2.2
Now use approximation ⇒ Put all values in question ⇒
\(\frac{(1.7 + 2.2) × (1.4 + 2.2)}{(1.7 + 1.4 + 2.2)}\)
\(\frac{3.9 × 3.6}{5.4 (approx)}\)
⇒ 2.6
Take option D ⇒ \(\frac{1}{2}\) (1.4 + 1.7 + 2.2)
= \(\frac{5.3}{2}\) = 2.6 (satisfied)
