24

OpenStudy (zepp):

No calculator? o.O

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I memorized my square roots LOL

OpenStudy (anonymous):

How do you know its 24? How do you get that? Yes I have a calcualtor. They want me to use the factoring method or the extracting method.

OpenStudy (zepp):

Haha nice :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I just need to know the process

OpenStudy (zepp):

Oh, then you'll have to go crazy and do \(\sqrt{2*288}\) \(\sqrt{2*2*144}\) .... \(\sqrt{2*2*2*2*2*2*3*3} \)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Thank you.

OpenStudy (mertsj):

\[\sqrt{576}=\sqrt{2\times2\times \times2\times2\times2\times2\times3\times3\times}=\sqrt{2^6\times3^2}=2^3\times3=24\]

OpenStudy (zepp):

Then \(\sqrt{2^6*3^2}=2^3*3=24\)

OpenStudy (amistre64):

or "long division" works too

OpenStudy (anonymous):

What I also want to know is how to do the square root of 2,916. They literally want me to write all that out. Where do I start?!

OpenStudy (amistre64):

divvy it up into parts of "2" and the algorithm is a sort of long hand division

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you mean just divide by 2?

OpenStudy (amistre64):

5 4 _________ /29 16 25 ---- 10,4 /416 416 answer is 54
