Answer

$12.2$

Work Step by Step

Using $\frac{\sqrt{a}}{\sqrt{b}}=\sqrt{\frac{a}{b}}$, then the given expression is equivalent to $$\begin{aligned} \sqrt{12}\cdot\frac{5}{\sqrt{2}}&=\sqrt{\frac{12}{2}}\cdot5 \\&= \sqrt{6}\cdot5 \\&= 5\sqrt{6} \\&\approx 12.2 .\end{aligned}$$ Hence, rounded to the nearest tenth, the given expression is approximately $12.2$.
