Square root of 36 minus square root of 8 (√36-√8)

√36 - √8

Here we will walk you through the process of calculating the difference between the square root of 36 and the square root of 8. Essentially, we will calculate √36 - √8.

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 36:
√36 = 6

2. Calculate the square root of 8:
√8 ≈ 2.82843

3. Subtract the square root of 8 from the square root of 36:
6 - 2.82843 = 3.17157

Therefore, the result of subtracting the square root of 8 from the square root of 36 is approximately 3.17157.

√36 - √8 ≈ 3.17157

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

6 - 2√2
