Simplify Square Root of 6344

Here we will show you two methods that you can use to simplify the square root of 6344. In other words, we will show you how to find the square root of 6344 in its simplest radical form using two different methods.

To be more specific, we have created an illustration below showing what we want to calculate. Our goal is to make "A" outside the radical (√) as large as possible, and "B" inside the radical (√) as small as possible.

√6344 = A√B

Greatest Perfect Square Factor Method
The Greatest Perfect Square Factor Method uses the greatest perfect square factor of 6344 to simplify the square root of 6344. This is how to calculate A and B using this method:

A = Calculate the square root of the greatest perfect square from the list of all factors of 6344. The factors of 6344 are 1, 2, 4, 8, 13, 26, 52, 61, 104, 122, 244, 488, 793, 1586, 3172, and 6344. Furthermore, the greatest perfect square on this list is 4 and the square root of 4 is 2. Therefore, A equals 2.

B = Calculate 6344 divided by the greatest perfect square from the list of all factors of 6344. We determined above that the greatest perfect square from the list of all factors of 6344 is 4. Furthermore, 6344 divided by 4 is 1586, therefore B equals 1586.

Now we have A and B and can get our answer to 6344 in its simplest radical form as follows:

√6344 = A√B

√6344 = 2√1586

Double Prime Factor Method
The Double Prime Factor Method uses the prime factors of 6344 to simplify the square root of 6344 to its simplest form possible. This is how to calculate A and B using this method:

A = Multiply all the double prime factors (pairs) of 6344 and then take the square root of that product. The prime factors that multiply together to make 6344 are 2 x 2 x 2 x 13 x 61. When we strip out the pairs only, we get 2 x 2 = 4 and the square root of 4 is 2. Therefore, A equals 2.

B = Divide 6344 by the number (A) squared. 2 squared is 4 and 6344 divided by 4 is 1586. Therefore, B equals 1586.

Once again we have A and B and can get our answer to 6344 in its simplest radical form as follows:

√6344 = A√B

√6344 = 2√1586
