Square root of 8 minus square root of 79 (√8-√79)

√8 - √79

Here we will walk you through the process of calculating the difference between the square root of 8 and the square root of 79. Essentially, we will calculate √8 - √79.

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 79:
√79 ≈ 8.88819

3. Subtract the square root of 79 from the square root of 8:
2.82843 - 8.88819 = -6.05976

Therefore, the result of subtracting the square root of 79 from the square root of 8 is approximately -6.05976.

√8 - √79 ≈ -6.05976

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