Simplify Square Root of 99888

Here we will show you two methods that you can use to simplify the square root of 99888. In other words, we will show you how to find the square root of 99888 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.

√99888 = A√B

Greatest Perfect Square Factor Method
The Greatest Perfect Square Factor Method uses the greatest perfect square factor of 99888 to simplify the square root of 99888. 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 99888. The factors of 99888 are 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16, 24, 48, 2081, 4162, 6243, 8324, 12486, 16648, 24972, 33296, 49944, and 99888. Furthermore, the greatest perfect square on this list is 16 and the square root of 16 is 4. Therefore, A equals 4.

B = Calculate 99888 divided by the greatest perfect square from the list of all factors of 99888. We determined above that the greatest perfect square from the list of all factors of 99888 is 16. Furthermore, 99888 divided by 16 is 6243, therefore B equals 6243.

Now we have A and B and can get our answer to 99888 in its simplest radical form as follows:

√99888 = A√B

√99888 = 4√6243

Double Prime Factor Method
The Double Prime Factor Method uses the prime factors of 99888 to simplify the square root of 99888 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 99888 and then take the square root of that product. The prime factors that multiply together to make 99888 are 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 2081. When we strip out the pairs only, we get 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 = 16 and the square root of 16 is 4. Therefore, A equals 4.

B = Divide 99888 by the number (A) squared. 4 squared is 16 and 99888 divided by 16 is 6243. Therefore, B equals 6243.

Once again we have A and B and can get our answer to 99888 in its simplest radical form as follows:

√99888 = A√B

√99888 = 4√6243
