Simplify Square Root of 48532

Here we will show you two methods that you can use to simplify the square root of 48532. In other words, we will show you how to find the square root of 48532 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.

√48532 = A√B

Greatest Perfect Square Factor Method
The Greatest Perfect Square Factor Method uses the greatest perfect square factor of 48532 to simplify the square root of 48532. 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 48532. The factors of 48532 are 1, 2, 4, 11, 22, 44, 1103, 2206, 4412, 12133, 24266, and 48532. Furthermore, the greatest perfect square on this list is 4 and the square root of 4 is 2. Therefore, A equals 2.

B = Calculate 48532 divided by the greatest perfect square from the list of all factors of 48532. We determined above that the greatest perfect square from the list of all factors of 48532 is 4. Furthermore, 48532 divided by 4 is 12133, therefore B equals 12133.

Now we have A and B and can get our answer to 48532 in its simplest radical form as follows:

√48532 = A√B

√48532 = 2√12133

Double Prime Factor Method
The Double Prime Factor Method uses the prime factors of 48532 to simplify the square root of 48532 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 48532 and then take the square root of that product. The prime factors that multiply together to make 48532 are 2 x 2 x 11 x 1103. 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 48532 by the number (A) squared. 2 squared is 4 and 48532 divided by 4 is 12133. Therefore, B equals 12133.

Once again we have A and B and can get our answer to 48532 in its simplest radical form as follows:

√48532 = A√B

√48532 = 2√12133
