Express each rational number as a fraction or mixed number in simplest form.

[tex]\[ \sqrt{25} \][/tex]

[tex]\[ \boxed{} \][/tex]



Answer :

To solve the given problem, we need to find the square root of 25 and then express it as a fraction.

1. Finding the Square Root:
[tex]\[ \sqrt{25} = 5 \][/tex]
This result means that [tex]\(\sqrt{25}\)[/tex] is equal to 5.

2. Expressing as a Fraction:
Since 5 is an integer, we can express it in fraction form:
[tex]\[ 5 = \frac{5}{1} \][/tex]

Thus, [tex]\(\sqrt{25}\)[/tex] can be expressed as the fraction [tex]\(\frac{5}{1}\)[/tex].

This is already in its simplest form because the greatest common divisor (GCD) of 5 and 1 is 1.

Therefore, the final simplified form of the expression is:
[tex]\[ \sqrt{25} = 5 = \frac{5}{1} \][/tex]
