Simplify Square Root of 49072

Here we will show you two methods that you can use to simplify the square root of 49072. In other words, we will show you how to find the square root of 49072 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.

√49072 = A√B

Greatest Perfect Square Factor Method
The Greatest Perfect Square Factor Method uses the greatest perfect square factor of 49072 to simplify the square root of 49072. 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 49072. The factors of 49072 are 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 3067, 6134, 12268, 24536, and 49072. Furthermore, the greatest perfect square on this list is 16 and the square root of 16 is 4. Therefore, A equals 4.

B = Calculate 49072 divided by the greatest perfect square from the list of all factors of 49072. We determined above that the greatest perfect square from the list of all factors of 49072 is 16. Furthermore, 49072 divided by 16 is 3067, therefore B equals 3067.

Now we have A and B and can get our answer to 49072 in its simplest radical form as follows:

√49072 = A√B

√49072 = 4√3067

Double Prime Factor Method
The Double Prime Factor Method uses the prime factors of 49072 to simplify the square root of 49072 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 49072 and then take the square root of that product. The prime factors that multiply together to make 49072 are 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 3067. When we strip out the pairs only, we get 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 = 16 and the square root of 16 is 4. Therefore, A equals 4.

B = Divide 49072 by the number (A) squared. 4 squared is 16 and 49072 divided by 16 is 3067. Therefore, B equals 3067.

Once again we have A and B and can get our answer to 49072 in its simplest radical form as follows:

√49072 = A√B

√49072 = 4√3067
