Value Comparison: Identifying the Maximum Among Given Numbers

Question

Choose the largest value

00:00 Choose the largest value

00:03 Let's break down 25 into 5 squared

00:06 Root cancels out square

00:09 We'll use this method for all expressions and find the largest

00:18 And this is the solution to the question

Let's begin by calculating the numerical value of each of the roots in the given options:

$\sqrt{25}=5\\ \sqrt{16}=4\\ \sqrt{9}=3\\$ We can determine that:

$5>4>3>1$ Therefore, the correct answer is option A

$\sqrt{25}$
