one simple qeustion about ellipse(math2)

<p>hi i just finished one of practice test and i scored above 770 according to my score scale..but one problem really bothers me...</p>

<p>what is the length of the major aixs of an ellipse whose equation is 12x^2+8y^2=8</p>

<p>i thoguht it was 2.45 because 8/48=6 therefore i thought answer would be root6 which came out to be 2.45</p>

<p>but the answer said that 2a=the major length of the major axis....whats going on??</p>

<p>thanks</p>

<p>nvm i got it ;) i feel hecka dumb...(or im very sleepy its 12:30....)</p>
