Step-by-Step Solution

To solve this problem, we'll simplify the given expression step by step:

First, let's simplify the numerator:

1052=1052=100\sqrt{10} \cdot \sqrt{5} \cdot \sqrt{2} = \sqrt{10 \cdot 5 \cdot 2} = \sqrt{100}.

Simplifying further, 100=10\sqrt{100} = 10.

Next, simplify the denominator:

554=554=100\sqrt{5} \cdot \sqrt{5} \cdot \sqrt{4} = \sqrt{5 \cdot 5 \cdot 4} = \sqrt{100}.

And 100=10\sqrt{100} = 10.

Now, divide the simplified numerator by the simplified denominator:

1010=1\frac{10}{10} = 1.

Therefore, the solution to the problem is 1 1 .
