the square root of five sixths . the square root of 5 over 2.

sqrt%285%2F6%29

sqrt%285%29%2Fsqrt%286%29 

Multiply by %28sqrt%286%29%2Fsqrt%286%29%29, which just equals 1.

%28sqrt%285%29%2Fsqrt%286%29%29%28sqrt%286%29%2Fsqrt%286%29%29 

Multiply under the radicals:

sqrt%2830%29%2Fsqrt%2836%29

Since sqrt%2836%29=6

sqrt%2830%29%2F6

---------------------------

the square root of 5 over 2

sqrt%285%2F2%29

sqrt%285%29%2Fsqrt%282%29 

Multiply by %28sqrt%282%29%2Fsqrt%282%29%29, which just equals 1.

%28sqrt%285%29%2Fsqrt%282%29%29%28sqrt%282%29%2Fsqrt%282%29%29 

Multiply under the radicals:

sqrt%2810%29%2Fsqrt%284%29

Since sqrt%284%29=2

sqrt%2810%29%2F2
