171, 19 and 76 all have a GCF of 19, 171/19 = 9 19/19 = 1 76/19 = 4 Now we can conclude: 9 x 19 = 171 1 x 19 = 19 4 x 19 = 76 Now we know ab−−√=a√×b√ So (9)×19−−−−−−−√=171 (1)×19−−−−−−−√=19 (4)×19−−−−−−−√=76 Now seperate the square root, so it is sqrt(a) x sqrt(b) Take the square root of the perfect square...(in brackets) so we get 319−−√ 119−−√ 219−−√ Add/Subtract with the appropriate sign... We get 419
