Answer:

The square root of (17/25) is the same as the square root of 17 divided by the square root of 25. You can divide the fraction inside the radical before or after you calculate the square root. The result will be the same.

Here we first calculate the square root of the numerator and the square root of the denominator separately, and then we divide the two:

√17 √25 ≈ 4.1231 5 ≈ 0.8246

Alternatively, we first divide 17 by 25 and then do the square root of the quotient:

√17/25 = √0.68 ≈ 0.8246
