Explain why the radical expression is or is NOT in simplified form?

• The expression is simplified because the radicand contains no fractions

• The expression is simplified because the radicand has no​ perfect-square factors other than 1.

• The expression is not in simplified form because a radical appears in the denominator of a fraction.

• The expression is not simplified because it contains a fraction.
