1. The problem is to verify if the expression \( \frac{2ab}{\sqrt{ab}} = 2\sqrt{ab} \) is true. 2. Recall the property of radicals: \( \frac{a}{\sqrt{a}} = \sqrt{a} \) for any positive \(a\). 3. Apply this property to the expression: $$ \frac{2ab}{\sqrt{ab}} = 2 \times \frac{ab}{\sqrt{ab}} = 2 \times \sqrt{ab} $$ 4. Explanation: Since \( \frac{ab}{\sqrt{ab}} = \sqrt{ab} \), multiplying by 2 gives \( 2\sqrt{ab} \). 5. Therefore, the equality \( \frac{2ab}{\sqrt{ab}} = 2\sqrt{ab} \) holds true. Final answer: \( \frac{2ab}{\sqrt{ab}} = 2\sqrt{ab} \).
