Simplify Square Root of 80576

Here we will show you two methods that you can use to simplify the square root of 80576. In other words, we will show you how to find the square root of 80576 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.

√80576 = A√B

Greatest Perfect Square Factor Method
The Greatest Perfect Square Factor Method uses the greatest perfect square factor of 80576 to simplify the square root of 80576. 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 80576. The factors of 80576 are 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64, 1259, 2518, 5036, 10072, 20144, 40288, and 80576. Furthermore, the greatest perfect square on this list is 64 and the square root of 64 is 8. Therefore, A equals 8.

B = Calculate 80576 divided by the greatest perfect square from the list of all factors of 80576. We determined above that the greatest perfect square from the list of all factors of 80576 is 64. Furthermore, 80576 divided by 64 is 1259, therefore B equals 1259.

Now we have A and B and can get our answer to 80576 in its simplest radical form as follows:

√80576 = A√B

√80576 = 8√1259

Double Prime Factor Method
The Double Prime Factor Method uses the prime factors of 80576 to simplify the square root of 80576 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 80576 and then take the square root of that product. The prime factors that multiply together to make 80576 are 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 1259. When we strip out the pairs only, we get 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 = 64 and the square root of 64 is 8. Therefore, A equals 8.

B = Divide 80576 by the number (A) squared. 8 squared is 64 and 80576 divided by 64 is 1259. Therefore, B equals 1259.

Once again we have A and B and can get our answer to 80576 in its simplest radical form as follows:

√80576 = A√B

√80576 = 8√1259
