Answer:

10/7 is a simple fraction, and √2 cannot be written as a simple fraction. So, they are not the same.

Step-by-step explanation:

10/7 is a number that has a numerator and a denominator.

Suppose √2 = 10/7, then √2 can also be written as a number that has a numerator and a denominator.

Since this is not the case, 10/7 cannot be the same as √2.
