If $$x + \sqrt 5 = 5 + \sqrt y $$ and x, y are positive integers, then the value of $$\frac{{\sqrt x + y}}{{x + \sqrt y }}$$ is?
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer:
Option
A
$$\eqalign{
& x + \sqrt 5 = 5 + \sqrt y \cr
& {\text{Put , }}x = 5{\text{ and }}y = 5 \cr
& 5 + \sqrt 5 = 5 + \sqrt 5 \cr
& {\text{L}}{\text{.H}}{\text{.S}} = {\text{R}}{\text{.H}}{\text{.S}} \cr
& \frac{{\sqrt x + y}}{{x + \sqrt y }} \cr
& = \frac{{\sqrt 5 + 5}}{{5 + \sqrt 5 }} \cr
& = 1 \cr} $$
