Square root of 4 minus square root of 142 (√4-√142)

√4 - √142

Here we will walk you through the process of calculating the difference between the square root of 4 and the square root of 142. Essentially, we will calculate √4 - √142.

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 4:
√4 = 2

2. Calculate the square root of 142:
√142 ≈ 11.91638

3. Subtract the square root of 142 from the square root of 4:
2 - 11.91638 = -9.91638

Therefore, the result of subtracting the square root of 142 from the square root of 4 is approximately -9.91638.

√4 - √142 ≈ -9.91638

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