Math Problem Statement

Evaluate the expression, rounding your answer to four significant digits where necessary.

Solution

The expression provided in the image is:

14×(2+98)\sqrt{\frac{1}{4} \times (2 + 98)}

Let's evaluate the expression step-by-step.

Step 1: Evaluate the expression inside the parentheses

2+98=1002 + 98 = 100

Step 2: Substitute the value into the expression

14×100\sqrt{\frac{1}{4} \times 100}

Step 3: Multiply the fraction by 100

14×100=25\frac{1}{4} \times 100 = 25

Step 4: Find the square root of 25

25=5\sqrt{25} = 5

So, the final answer is: 5.0005.000 rounded to four significant digits.
