What square root equals 300? In other words, what number would you take the square root of to get 300? To solve this problem, we want to find x in the following equation:

√x = 300

To solve the √x = 300 equation, we first raise both sides to the power of 2 to eliminate the square root:

(√x)² = 300²
x = 300²

Then, we calculate 300² to get the following answer:

300² = 300 × 300
300² = 90,000

√90,000 = 300
