Square root of 4 minus square root of 56 (√4-√56)

√4 - √56

Here we will walk you through the process of calculating the difference between the square root of 4 and the square root of 56. Essentially, we will calculate √4 - √56.

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 56:
√56 ≈ 7.48331

3. Subtract the square root of 56 from the square root of 4:
2 - 7.48331 = -5.48331

Therefore, the result of subtracting the square root of 56 from the square root of 4 is approximately -5.48331.

√4 - √56 ≈ -5.48331

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

2 - 2√14
