Simplify 10 square root of x/5

$10 \sqrt{\frac{x}{5}}$

Step 1

Rewrite $\sqrt{\frac{x}{5}}$ as $\frac{\sqrt{x}}{\sqrt{5}}$ .

$10 \frac{\sqrt{x}}{\sqrt{5}}$

Step 2

Multiply $\frac{\sqrt{x}}{\sqrt{5}}$ by $\frac{\sqrt{5}}{\sqrt{5}}$ .

$10 (\frac{\sqrt{x}}{\sqrt{5}} \cdot \frac{\sqrt{5}}{\sqrt{5}})$

Step 3

Combine and simplify the denominator.

Multiply $\frac{\sqrt{x}}{\sqrt{5}}$ by $\frac{\sqrt{5}}{\sqrt{5}}$ .

$10 \frac{\sqrt{x} \sqrt{5}}{\sqrt{5} \sqrt{5}}$

Raise $\sqrt{5}$ to the power of $1$ .

$10 \frac{\sqrt{x} \sqrt{5}}{{\sqrt{5}}^{1} \sqrt{5}}$

Raise $\sqrt{5}$ to the power of $1$ .

$10 \frac{\sqrt{x} \sqrt{5}}{{\sqrt{5}}^{1} {\sqrt{5}}^{1}}$

Use the power rule $a^{m} a^{n} = a^{m + n}$ to combine exponents.

$10 \frac{\sqrt{x} \sqrt{5}}{{\sqrt{5}}^{1 + 1}}$

Add $1$ and $1$ .

$10 \frac{\sqrt{x} \sqrt{5}}{{\sqrt{5}}^{2}}$

Rewrite ${\sqrt{5}}^{2}$ as $5$ .

Use $\sqrt[n]{a^{x}} = a^{\frac{x}{n}}$ to rewrite $\sqrt{5}$ as $5^{\frac{1}{2}}$ .

$10 \frac{\sqrt{x} \sqrt{5}}{{(5^{\frac{1}{2}})}^{2}}$

Apply the power rule and multiply exponents, ${(a^{m})}^{n} = a^{m n}$ .

$10 \frac{\sqrt{x} \sqrt{5}}{5^{\frac{1}{2} \cdot 2}}$

Combine $\frac{1}{2}$ and $2$ .

$10 \frac{\sqrt{x} \sqrt{5}}{5^{\frac{2}{2}}}$

Cancel the common factor of $2$ .

Cancel the common factor.

$10 \frac{\sqrt{x} \sqrt{5}}{5^{\frac{2}{2}}}$

Rewrite the expression.

$10 \frac{\sqrt{x} \sqrt{5}}{5^{1}}$

Evaluate the exponent.

$10 \frac{\sqrt{x} \sqrt{5}}{5}$

Step 4

Combine using the product rule for radicals.

$10 \frac{\sqrt{x \cdot 5}}{5}$

Step 5

Cancel the common factor of $5$ .

Factor $5$ out of $10$ .

$5 (2) \frac{\sqrt{x \cdot 5}}{5}$

Cancel the common factor.

$5 \cdot 2 \frac{\sqrt{x \cdot 5}}{5}$

Rewrite the expression.

$2 \sqrt{x \cdot 5}$

Step 6

Reorder factors in $2 \sqrt{x \cdot 5}$ .

$2 \sqrt{5 x}$
