What is quotient?


When one number is divided by the other number, then the result obtained is known as the quotient of two numbers.

Given information-

The fraction number given in the problem is,

[tex]=\dfrac{2-\sqrt{8} }{4\sqrt{12} }[/tex]

To simplify the which are under the root, brake them in simple multiplication number as,

[tex]\dfrac{2-\sqrt{8} }{4\sqrt{12} }=\dfrac{2-\sqrt{2\times2\times2} }{4\sqrt{2\times2\times3} }[/tex]

Take out numbers from root which are makes pairs (as pair number make perfect square). Thus,

[tex]\dfrac{2-\sqrt{8} }{4\sqrt{12} }=\dfrac{2-2\sqrt{2} }{4\times2\sqrt{3} }[/tex]

Take the common number out,

[tex]\dfrac{2-\sqrt{8} }{4\sqrt{12} }=\dfrac{2(1-\sqrt{2} )}{4\times2\sqrt{3} }\\\dfrac{2-\sqrt{8} }{4\sqrt{12} }=\dfrac{1-\sqrt{2} }{4\sqrt{3} }[/tex]

Thus the resultant quotient is [tex]\dfrac{1-\sqrt{2} }{4\sqrt{3} }[/tex].
