Simplify Square Root of 72839

Here we will show you two methods that you can use to simplify the square root of 72839. In other words, we will show you how to find the square root of 72839 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.

√72839 = A√B

Greatest Perfect Square Factor Method
The Greatest Perfect Square Factor Method uses the greatest perfect square factor of 72839 to simplify the square root of 72839. 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 72839. The factors of 72839 are 1, 13, 169, 431, 5603, and 72839. Furthermore, the greatest perfect square on this list is 169 and the square root of 169 is 13. Therefore, A equals 13.

B = Calculate 72839 divided by the greatest perfect square from the list of all factors of 72839. We determined above that the greatest perfect square from the list of all factors of 72839 is 169. Furthermore, 72839 divided by 169 is 431, therefore B equals 431.

Now we have A and B and can get our answer to 72839 in its simplest radical form as follows:

√72839 = A√B

√72839 = 13√431

Double Prime Factor Method
The Double Prime Factor Method uses the prime factors of 72839 to simplify the square root of 72839 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 72839 and then take the square root of that product. The prime factors that multiply together to make 72839 are 13 x 13 x 431. When we strip out the pairs only, we get 13 x 13 = 169 and the square root of 169 is 13. Therefore, A equals 13.

B = Divide 72839 by the number (A) squared. 13 squared is 169 and 72839 divided by 169 is 431. Therefore, B equals 431.

Once again we have A and B and can get our answer to 72839 in its simplest radical form as follows:

√72839 = A√B

√72839 = 13√431
