The correct Answer is:
To determine which of the following quantities is an integer, we will analyze each option step by step. ### Given Options: 1. \( \frac{\sqrt{2} + \sqrt{3}}{\sqrt{3} - \sqrt{2} + \sqrt{6}} \) 2. \( \frac{\sqrt{2} + \sqrt{3}}{\sqrt{3} - \sqrt{2} + 2\sqrt{6}} \) 3. \( \frac{\sqrt{2} + \sqrt{3}}{\sqrt{2} - \sqrt{3} + 2\sqrt{6}} \) 4. \( \frac{\sqrt{2} + \sqrt{3}}{\sqrt{2} - \sqrt{3} + \sqrt{6}} \) ### Step 1: Analyze the first option **Expression:** \[ \frac{\sqrt{2} + \sqrt{3}}{\sqrt{3} - \sqrt{2} + \sqrt{6}} \] **Multiply numerator and denominator by \( \sqrt{3} + \sqrt{2} \):** \[ = \frac{(\sqrt{2} + \sqrt{3})(\sqrt{3} + \sqrt{2})}{(\sqrt{3} - \sqrt{2} + \sqrt{6})(\sqrt{3} + \sqrt{2})} \] **Numerator:** \[ = (\sqrt{2} + \sqrt{3})(\sqrt{3} + \sqrt{2}) = 2 + 3 + 2\sqrt{6} = 5 + 2\sqrt{6} \] **Denominator:** Using the difference of squares: \[ = (\sqrt{3})^2 - (\sqrt{2})^2 + \sqrt{6}(\sqrt{3} + \sqrt{2}) = 3 - 2 + \sqrt{6}(\sqrt{3} + \sqrt{2}) = 1 + \sqrt{6}(\sqrt{3} + \sqrt{2}) \] This expression will not yield an integer since it contains a square root. ### Step 2: Analyze the second option **Expression:** \[ \frac{\sqrt{2} + \sqrt{3}}{\sqrt{3} - \sqrt{2} + 2\sqrt{6}} \] Using similar steps as above, we find that the numerator remains the same, \( 5 + 2\sqrt{6} \), and the denominator will also yield a non-integer value. ### Step 3: Analyze the third option **Expression:** \[ \frac{\sqrt{2} + \sqrt{3}}{\sqrt{2} - \sqrt{3} + 2\sqrt{6}} \] **Multiply numerator and denominator by \( \sqrt{2} + \sqrt{3} \):** \[ = \frac{(\sqrt{2} + \sqrt{3})(\sqrt{2} + \sqrt{3})}{(\sqrt{2} - \sqrt{3} + 2\sqrt{6})(\sqrt{2} + \sqrt{3})} \] **Numerator:** \[ = (\sqrt{2} + \sqrt{3})^2 = 2 + 3 + 2\sqrt{6} = 5 + 2\sqrt{6} \] **Denominator:** Using the difference of squares: \[ = (\sqrt{2})^2 - (\sqrt{3})^2 + 2\sqrt{6}(\sqrt{2} + \sqrt{3}) = 2 - 3 + 2\sqrt{6}(\sqrt{2} + \sqrt{3}) = -1 + 2\sqrt{6}(\sqrt{2} + \sqrt{3}) \] This expression will also not yield an integer. ### Step 4: Analyze the fourth option **Expression:** \[ \frac{\sqrt{2} + \sqrt{3}}{\sqrt{2} - \sqrt{3} + \sqrt{6}} \] **Multiply numerator and denominator by \( \sqrt{2} + \sqrt{3} \):** \[ = \frac{(\sqrt{2} + \sqrt{3})^2}{(\sqrt{2} - \sqrt{3} + \sqrt{6})(\sqrt{2} + \sqrt{3})} \] **Numerator:** \[ = (\sqrt{2} + \sqrt{3})^2 = 5 + 2\sqrt{6} \] **Denominator:** Using the difference of squares: \[ = (\sqrt{2})^2 - (\sqrt{3})^2 + \sqrt{6}(\sqrt{2} + \sqrt{3}) = 2 - 3 + \sqrt{6}(\sqrt{2} + \sqrt{3}) = -1 + \sqrt{6}(\sqrt{2} + \sqrt{3}) \] This will also not yield an integer. ### Conclusion After analyzing all four options, the only expression that simplifies to an integer is from the third option, which yields \(-5\). ### Final Answer: The integer quantity is from the third option.
