Simplify Square Root of 8438

What is the square root of 8438 in its simplest radical form? 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.

√8438 = A√B

Unfortunately, the square root of 8438 cannot be simplified. Thus, here is the answer to the square root of 8438 in its simplest form:

√ 8438 = √ 8438

Here are two different methods we used to determine why the square root of 8438 cannot be simplified.

1) To be able to simplify the square root of 8438, one of the factors of 8438 other than 1 must be a perfect square. The factors of 8438 are 1, 2, 4219, and 8438. Since none of these factors are perfect squares, the square root of 8438 cannot be simplified.

2) To be able to simplify the square root of 8438, all the prime factors of 8438 cannot be unique. When we did prime factorization of 8438, we found that 2 x 4219 equals 8438. Since all the prime factors are unique, the square root of 8438 cannot be simplified.
