Square roots and division
I need help understanding this problem and how to get to the answer to: Find the square of 25/9.
The answer that was given to us was 7 58/81 but we don't understand.

Hi oceangirl122;
Welcome to the forum.
Now you can reduce 625 / 81 to a proper fraction.
In mathematics, you don't understand things. You just get used to them.
If it ain't broke, fix it until it is.
Always satisfy the Prime Directive of getting the right answer above all else.
