$\frac{\sqrt{10}}{6}$

Work Step by Step

$\sqrt{\frac{5}{18}}$ Use the quotient rule for square roots. $\frac{\sqrt5}{\sqrt{18}}$ Simplify by factoring out perfect squares. $\frac{\sqrt5}{\sqrt{(9)(2)}}$ Simplify. $\frac{\sqrt5}{3\sqrt{2}}$ Rationalize the denominator. $\frac{\sqrt5}{3\sqrt{2}}\times\frac{\sqrt{2}}{\sqrt{2}}$ Use product rule for square roots. $\frac{\sqrt{10}}{6}$
