Square root of 2 minus square root of 96 (√2-√96)

√2 - √96

Here we will walk you through the process of calculating the difference between the square root of 2 and the square root of 96. Essentially, we will calculate √2 - √96.

First, we need to find the square root of each number individually. Then we will subtract one from the other. Below is the step-by-step calculation:

1. Calculate the square root of 2:
√2 ≈ 1.41421

2. Calculate the square root of 96:
√96 ≈ 9.79796

3. Subtract the square root of 96 from the square root of 2:
1.41421 - 9.79796 = -8.38375

Therefore, the result of subtracting the square root of 96 from the square root of 2 is approximately -8.38375.

√2 - √96 ≈ -8.38375

To make things even more convenient, we have also expressed the result in its simplest radical form:

√2 - 4√6
