Simplify Square Root of 53272

Here we will show you two methods that you can use to simplify the square root of 53272. In other words, we will show you how to find the square root of 53272 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.

√53272 = A√B

Greatest Perfect Square Factor Method
The Greatest Perfect Square Factor Method uses the greatest perfect square factor of 53272 to simplify the square root of 53272. 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 53272. The factors of 53272 are 1, 2, 4, 8, 6659, 13318, 26636, and 53272. Furthermore, the greatest perfect square on this list is 4 and the square root of 4 is 2. Therefore, A equals 2.

B = Calculate 53272 divided by the greatest perfect square from the list of all factors of 53272. We determined above that the greatest perfect square from the list of all factors of 53272 is 4. Furthermore, 53272 divided by 4 is 13318, therefore B equals 13318.

Now we have A and B and can get our answer to 53272 in its simplest radical form as follows:

√53272 = A√B

√53272 = 2√13318

Double Prime Factor Method
The Double Prime Factor Method uses the prime factors of 53272 to simplify the square root of 53272 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 53272 and then take the square root of that product. The prime factors that multiply together to make 53272 are 2 x 2 x 2 x 6659. 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 53272 by the number (A) squared. 2 squared is 4 and 53272 divided by 4 is 13318. Therefore, B equals 13318.

Once again we have A and B and can get our answer to 53272 in its simplest radical form as follows:

√53272 = A√B

√53272 = 2√13318
