[Math] Converting a radical to a mixed radical

algebra-precalculusarithmetic

Say I have $\sqrt{\frac{2}{9}}$. How would I convert this to a mixed radical where the radicand is a whole number?

I can convert the $\sqrt{8}$ to a mixed radical easily, $2\sqrt{2}$, but this fraction is tripping me up.

Best Answer

$\sqrt{\frac{2}{9}} = \frac{\sqrt{2}}{\sqrt{9}} = \frac{\sqrt{2}}{3}$

Is this what you wanted?
