Correct
Nice Work!
Incorrect
Multiplication Property of Square Roots
`sqrt(ab)=sqrt(a) xx sqrt(b)`Division Property of Square Roots
`sqrt(a/b)=(sqrt(a))/(sqrt(b))` or `sqrt(a -: b)=sqrt(a) -: sqrt(b)`Apply the multiplication and division properties of square roots to simplify the expression`(\color(blue)(4)\color(red)(sqrt8)times\color(blue)(2)\color(red)(sqrt5))/(8sqrt20)` `=` `(\color(blue)(4times2)\color(red)(sqrt(8times5)))/(8sqrt20)` Multiply the coefficients by each other and the surds by each other in the numerator `=` `(\color(blue)(8)\color(red)(sqrt(40)))/(8sqrt20)` `=` `sqrt40/sqrt20` Simplify the coefficients `=` `sqrt(40/20)` Rewrite and simplify the surds `=` `sqrt(2)` `sqrt(2)` -
