Math Problem Statement

Simplify the expression \(\frac{\sqrt{2}}{\sqrt{7}}\).

Solution

The expression shown in the image is:

27\frac{\sqrt{2}}{\sqrt{7}}

To simplify this, we can combine the square roots using the property ab=ab\frac{\sqrt{a}}{\sqrt{b}} = \sqrt{\frac{a}{b}}:

27=27\frac{\sqrt{2}}{\sqrt{7}} = \sqrt{\frac{2}{7}}

Therefore, the simplified answer is:

27\sqrt{\frac{2}{7}}
