Simplify Square Root of 59912

Here we will show you two methods that you can use to simplify the square root of 59912. In other words, we will show you how to find the square root of 59912 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.

√59912 = A√B

Greatest Perfect Square Factor Method
The Greatest Perfect Square Factor Method uses the greatest perfect square factor of 59912 to simplify the square root of 59912. 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 59912. The factors of 59912 are 1, 2, 4, 8, 7489, 14978, 29956, and 59912. Furthermore, the greatest perfect square on this list is 4 and the square root of 4 is 2. Therefore, A equals 2.

B = Calculate 59912 divided by the greatest perfect square from the list of all factors of 59912. We determined above that the greatest perfect square from the list of all factors of 59912 is 4. Furthermore, 59912 divided by 4 is 14978, therefore B equals 14978.

Now we have A and B and can get our answer to 59912 in its simplest radical form as follows:

√59912 = A√B

√59912 = 2√14978

Double Prime Factor Method
The Double Prime Factor Method uses the prime factors of 59912 to simplify the square root of 59912 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 59912 and then take the square root of that product. The prime factors that multiply together to make 59912 are 2 x 2 x 2 x 7489. 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 59912 by the number (A) squared. 2 squared is 4 and 59912 divided by 4 is 14978. Therefore, B equals 14978.

Once again we have A and B and can get our answer to 59912 in its simplest radical form as follows:

√59912 = A√B

√59912 = 2√14978
