Ok well this is the question. SQRT3/2 / 1/2 Its on of those fractions stacked onto another fraction questions, except with the first fraction having a radical in the numerator. I ended up getting SQRT3 + 4/2. Is this right?

Use paranthesis to explain what you meant.Is it:\sqrt{\frac{\frac{3}{2}}{\frac{1}{2}}} ?

I think he means:
\frac{\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}}{\frac{1}{2}}

Maybe?

In any of the 2 cases,why is there a "+" in the final answer...?

Daniel.
 
Yes I mean what Eroph wrote. Umm I multiplied them by reversing the denominator and I did a sort of cross multiplying thing. Did I do it wrong?
 
Lol I made a mistake and I was adding or something. Is the answer (2SQRT3) / 2?
 
Yep,you can simplify through that "2" and bring the result to a simpler form.

Daniel.
 
So then the final answer would just be SQRT3 then?
