Simplify Square Root of 49500

Here we will show you two methods that you can use to simplify the square root of 49500. In other words, we will show you how to find the square root of 49500 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.

√49500 = A√B

Greatest Perfect Square Factor Method
The Greatest Perfect Square Factor Method uses the greatest perfect square factor of 49500 to simplify the square root of 49500. 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 49500. The factors of 49500 are 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 9, 10, 11, 12, 15, 18, 20, 22, 25, 30, 33, 36, 44, 45, 50, 55, 60, 66, 75, 90, 99, 100, 110, 125, 132, 150, 165, 180, 198, 220, 225, 250, 275, 300, 330, 375, 396, 450, 495, 500, 550, 660, 750, 825, 900, 990, 1100, 1125, 1375, 1500, 1650, 1980, 2250, 2475, 2750, 3300, 4125, 4500, 4950, 5500, 8250, 9900, 12375, 16500, 24750, and 49500. Furthermore, the greatest perfect square on this list is 900 and the square root of 900 is 30. Therefore, A equals 30.

B = Calculate 49500 divided by the greatest perfect square from the list of all factors of 49500. We determined above that the greatest perfect square from the list of all factors of 49500 is 900. Furthermore, 49500 divided by 900 is 55, therefore B equals 55.

Now we have A and B and can get our answer to 49500 in its simplest radical form as follows:

√49500 = A√B

√49500 = 30√55

Double Prime Factor Method
The Double Prime Factor Method uses the prime factors of 49500 to simplify the square root of 49500 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 49500 and then take the square root of that product. The prime factors that multiply together to make 49500 are 2 x 2 x 3 x 3 x 5 x 5 x 5 x 11. When we strip out the pairs only, we get 2 x 2 x 3 x 3 x 5 x 5 = 900 and the square root of 900 is 30. Therefore, A equals 30.

B = Divide 49500 by the number (A) squared. 30 squared is 900 and 49500 divided by 900 is 55. Therefore, B equals 55.

Once again we have A and B and can get our answer to 49500 in its simplest radical form as follows:

√49500 = A√B

√49500 = 30√55
