Square root of 8 minus square root of 61 (√8-√61)

√8 - √61

Here we will walk you through the process of calculating the difference between the square root of 8 and the square root of 61. Essentially, we will calculate √8 - √61.

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 8:
√8 ≈ 2.82843

2. Calculate the square root of 61:
√61 ≈ 7.81025

3. Subtract the square root of 61 from the square root of 8:
2.82843 - 7.81025 = -4.98182

Therefore, the result of subtracting the square root of 61 from the square root of 8 is approximately -4.98182.

√8 - √61 ≈ -4.98182

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

2√2 - √61
