Simplify Square Root of 87711

Here we will show you two methods that you can use to simplify the square root of 87711. In other words, we will show you how to find the square root of 87711 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.

√87711 = A√B

Greatest Perfect Square Factor Method
The Greatest Perfect Square Factor Method uses the greatest perfect square factor of 87711 to simplify the square root of 87711. 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 87711. The factors of 87711 are 1, 3, 13, 39, 169, 173, 507, 519, 2249, 6747, 29237, and 87711. Furthermore, the greatest perfect square on this list is 169 and the square root of 169 is 13. Therefore, A equals 13.

B = Calculate 87711 divided by the greatest perfect square from the list of all factors of 87711. We determined above that the greatest perfect square from the list of all factors of 87711 is 169. Furthermore, 87711 divided by 169 is 519, therefore B equals 519.

Now we have A and B and can get our answer to 87711 in its simplest radical form as follows:

√87711 = A√B

√87711 = 13√519

Double Prime Factor Method
The Double Prime Factor Method uses the prime factors of 87711 to simplify the square root of 87711 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 87711 and then take the square root of that product. The prime factors that multiply together to make 87711 are 3 x 13 x 13 x 173. 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 87711 by the number (A) squared. 13 squared is 169 and 87711 divided by 169 is 519. Therefore, B equals 519.

Once again we have A and B and can get our answer to 87711 in its simplest radical form as follows:

√87711 = A√B

√87711 = 13√519
