Video Solution

Solution Steps

00:00 Solve the following problem
00:03 The root of a number (A) multiplied by the root of another number (B)
00:08 equals the root of their product (A times B)
00:11 Apply this formula to our exercise, and calculate the product
00:15 Break down 25 to 5 squared
00:19 The root of a squared number cancels out the square
00:22 This is the solution

Step-by-Step Solution

To solve the expression 125 \sqrt{1} \cdot \sqrt{25} , we will use the Product Property of Square Roots.

According to the property, we have:

125=125\sqrt{1} \cdot \sqrt{25} = \sqrt{1 \cdot 25}

First, calculate the product inside the square root:

125=251 \cdot 25 = 25

Now the expression simplifies to:

25\sqrt{25}

Finding the square root of 25 gives us:

55

Thus, the value of 125 \sqrt{1} \cdot \sqrt{25} is 5\boxed{5}.

After comparing this solution with the provided choices, we see that the correct answer is choice 3.
