Simplify Square Root of 98550

Here we will show you two methods that you can use to simplify the square root of 98550. In other words, we will show you how to find the square root of 98550 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.

√98550 = A√B

Greatest Perfect Square Factor Method
The Greatest Perfect Square Factor Method uses the greatest perfect square factor of 98550 to simplify the square root of 98550. 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 98550. The factors of 98550 are 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 9, 10, 15, 18, 25, 27, 30, 45, 50, 54, 73, 75, 90, 135, 146, 150, 219, 225, 270, 365, 438, 450, 657, 675, 730, 1095, 1314, 1350, 1825, 1971, 2190, 3285, 3650, 3942, 5475, 6570, 9855, 10950, 16425, 19710, 32850, 49275, and 98550. Furthermore, the greatest perfect square on this list is 225 and the square root of 225 is 15. Therefore, A equals 15.

B = Calculate 98550 divided by the greatest perfect square from the list of all factors of 98550. We determined above that the greatest perfect square from the list of all factors of 98550 is 225. Furthermore, 98550 divided by 225 is 438, therefore B equals 438.

Now we have A and B and can get our answer to 98550 in its simplest radical form as follows:

√98550 = A√B

√98550 = 15√438

Double Prime Factor Method
The Double Prime Factor Method uses the prime factors of 98550 to simplify the square root of 98550 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 98550 and then take the square root of that product. The prime factors that multiply together to make 98550 are 2 x 3 x 3 x 3 x 5 x 5 x 73. When we strip out the pairs only, we get 3 x 3 x 5 x 5 = 225 and the square root of 225 is 15. Therefore, A equals 15.

B = Divide 98550 by the number (A) squared. 15 squared is 225 and 98550 divided by 225 is 438. Therefore, B equals 438.

Once again we have A and B and can get our answer to 98550 in its simplest radical form as follows:

√98550 = A√B

√98550 = 15√438
