Simplify Square Root of 99950

Here we will show you two methods that you can use to simplify the square root of 99950. In other words, we will show you how to find the square root of 99950 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.

√99950 = A√B

Greatest Perfect Square Factor Method
The Greatest Perfect Square Factor Method uses the greatest perfect square factor of 99950 to simplify the square root of 99950. 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 99950. The factors of 99950 are 1, 2, 5, 10, 25, 50, 1999, 3998, 9995, 19990, 49975, and 99950. Furthermore, the greatest perfect square on this list is 25 and the square root of 25 is 5. Therefore, A equals 5.

B = Calculate 99950 divided by the greatest perfect square from the list of all factors of 99950. We determined above that the greatest perfect square from the list of all factors of 99950 is 25. Furthermore, 99950 divided by 25 is 3998, therefore B equals 3998.

Now we have A and B and can get our answer to 99950 in its simplest radical form as follows:

√99950 = A√B

√99950 = 5√3998

Double Prime Factor Method
The Double Prime Factor Method uses the prime factors of 99950 to simplify the square root of 99950 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 99950 and then take the square root of that product. The prime factors that multiply together to make 99950 are 2 x 5 x 5 x 1999. When we strip out the pairs only, we get 5 x 5 = 25 and the square root of 25 is 5. Therefore, A equals 5.

B = Divide 99950 by the number (A) squared. 5 squared is 25 and 99950 divided by 25 is 3998. Therefore, B equals 3998.

Once again we have A and B and can get our answer to 99950 in its simplest radical form as follows:

√99950 = A√B

√99950 = 5√3998
