Don't know how to do this

[small venture]

split the roots first

so say root 396 = root(36)root(11)

= 6root11

do the root 44 now

[jagged zenith]

oh alr

[jagged zenith]

2root11

then what

[small venture]

okay so now simplify the fraction and combine

with the 22/root11

[jagged zenith]

how do i simply it

[small venture]

you got 220/2root11

that equals 110/root11

[jagged zenith]

multiple by the donimantor

[jagged zenith]

oh like that

i see

[small venture]

yep

[small venture]

yes thats the last step

but just multiply the fraction

so fraction * root11/root11

[jagged zenith]

so so far we got 6root 11 22over 11 and 110root11

[small venture]

22 over root 11 right?

[jagged zenith]

and then u minus it

by the answer

[small venture]

show me ur working out so far

[jagged zenith]

wait a sec

[small venture]

alright

[jagged zenith]

there

handwriting aint the best

[small venture]

its fine i understand it

yes so all steps are great so far

now join 22 /root 11 - 110/ root 11 together

its just like normal fractions

[jagged zenith]

alr

-82/root11

@small venture

[small venture]

right idea just wrong subtraction

[jagged zenith]

What did i do wrong

[small venture]

22 - 110 = -88

[jagged zenith]

im slow

😭

mb

[small venture]

its alright u just need practice

everything is good so far though

the surd denominatior gets into ur head so u forget the easy stuff its alright

😭

[jagged zenith]

yh

-88 voer root11

[small venture]

yep

okay so do yk what u do now

[jagged zenith]

nope

nvr did this type of question

[small venture]

ah its alright

[jagged zenith]

my teacher js gave it to me

[small venture]

so we wanna get rid of that denominator

so we multiply the fraction by root11/root11 cuz its the same as multiplying by 1

so in reality it doesn't really change anything in the fraction

[jagged zenith]

so-88 over 11

[small venture]

-88root 11 over 11

[jagged zenith]

?

[small venture]

u multiply both top and bottom

of the fraction

[jagged zenith]

oh yes i remember that

[small venture]

yep nice

[jagged zenith]

now what abt the 6root 11

[small venture]

nothing

try simplifying the fraction and see what happens

[jagged zenith]

so 8root11

the 6root11+8root11

[small venture]

don't forget the right sign

u had -88

[jagged zenith]

yh

-8root11

[small venture]

now its just simple old subtraction

[jagged zenith]

this confused me

[small venture]

😭sorry

i forgot the sign aswell

[jagged zenith]

6root11 -8root11

[small venture]

yess

[jagged zenith]

-2root11

did i mess it upp?

[small venture]

🔥

nope its right

[jagged zenith]

nice

ty

only 4 marks tho

😔

[small venture]

make sure to get good at these cuz its sooo important

and ur gonna use it a lottt

grade 7+ skill

[small venture]

thats a lot wdym 💀

[jagged zenith]

btw

yk when it says aroot11

[small venture]

yes

[jagged zenith]

would they mention a minus in the test or not

gcse*

[small venture]

no, but if they say an integer then it can be either a positive or negative whole number

also happens when u complete the square

[jagged zenith]

i see

ty

[small venture]

don't worry, if ur working out is right then just put the answer like u got it

no worries

Ah that's how it works

[slate anvil]

yo @jagged zenith

if this is solved then please go ahead and run command /solved

[boreal goblet]

I did that and can’t access it now

[slate anvil]

yeah thats the point 🙏

!!/solved is essentially a cmd that closes your thread

[jagged zenith]

oh mb

[slate anvil]

because if your question is solved your thread no longer needs to stay up
