Solve
First things first, evaluate all square roots in order, starting with the square root of 12
- 3.464101615137755
- 3.162277660168379
- 2.23606797749979
- 2.449489742783178
The next step is to divide, despite multiplication always coming before division, you cannot multiply without first knowing the values of the division.
[tex]3.5 / 3.2 = 1.09\\\\2.2 / 2.4 = 1.09[/tex]
Now, you can multiply.
[tex]1.09 * 1.09 = 1.1881[/tex]
That said, 1.1881 is closest to 1 because it has a 1 in the tenths place, the greatest place in a decimal number.
