Simplify Square Root of 42282

Here we will show you two methods that you can use to simplify the square root of 42282. In other words, we will show you how to find the square root of 42282 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.

√42282 = A√B

Greatest Perfect Square Factor Method
The Greatest Perfect Square Factor Method uses the greatest perfect square factor of 42282 to simplify the square root of 42282. 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 42282. The factors of 42282 are 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 18, 27, 29, 54, 58, 81, 87, 162, 174, 243, 261, 486, 522, 729, 783, 1458, 1566, 2349, 4698, 7047, 14094, 21141, and 42282. Furthermore, the greatest perfect square on this list is 729 and the square root of 729 is 27. Therefore, A equals 27.

B = Calculate 42282 divided by the greatest perfect square from the list of all factors of 42282. We determined above that the greatest perfect square from the list of all factors of 42282 is 729. Furthermore, 42282 divided by 729 is 58, therefore B equals 58.

Now we have A and B and can get our answer to 42282 in its simplest radical form as follows:

√42282 = A√B

√42282 = 27√58

Double Prime Factor Method
The Double Prime Factor Method uses the prime factors of 42282 to simplify the square root of 42282 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 42282 and then take the square root of that product. The prime factors that multiply together to make 42282 are 2 x 3 x 3 x 3 x 3 x 3 x 3 x 29. When we strip out the pairs only, we get 3 x 3 x 3 x 3 x 3 x 3 = 729 and the square root of 729 is 27. Therefore, A equals 27.

B = Divide 42282 by the number (A) squared. 27 squared is 729 and 42282 divided by 729 is 58. Therefore, B equals 58.

Once again we have A and B and can get our answer to 42282 in its simplest radical form as follows:

√42282 = A√B

√42282 = 27√58
