00:14 | com Here were asked to simplify the square root of | |
00:21 | 98 . The difference with this example is that 98 | |
00:26 | is not a perfect square . In other words , | |
00:30 | it's impossible to find a whole number times itself , | |
00:35 | which equals 98 . However , it's important to understand | |
00:41 | that the square root of 98 can still be simplified | |
00:46 | to understand how let's take a look at the problem | |
00:50 | from the previous example , The Square Root of 25 | |
00:57 | . Mhm . since 25 factors as five times 5 | |
01:05 | , The Square Root of 25 is five . Yeah | |
01:12 | . In other words , since we have a pair | |
01:15 | of factors that are the same , One of these | |
01:18 | factors in this case of five can come out of | |
01:23 | the radical . So the square root of 25 is | |
01:28 | five . The same technique can be used to simplify | |
01:33 | the square root of 98 . Notice that 98 factors | |
01:40 | As two times 49 and 49 factors As seven times | |
01:48 | 7 . So we have a pair of sevens in | |
01:52 | our factor tree . This means that a seven can | |
01:56 | come out of the radical . Mhm and notice that | |
02:01 | we have a two in our factor tree that doesn't | |
02:04 | pair up . This means that a two stays inside | |
02:08 | the radical , Which gives us seven times the square | |
02:12 | root of two . So the square root of 98 | |
02:17 | simplifies to seven route to . |
