OpenStudy (mathstudent55):

64 is a number There is nothing to simplify. I still don't understand what the question is.

OpenStudy (mathstudent55):

Is there an exponent or an operation that you are not showing? Can you draw it?

|dw:1436139716916:dw|

OpenStudy (mathstudent55):

Oh. You can write that as: sqrt(64). You can use sqrt( ) to mean square root.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oo ok

OpenStudy (mathstudent55):

Ok. The square root of a number is the number that when squared, or multiplied by itself will equal the original number. In other words, \(\sqrt{64} \) is the same as asking what number multiplied by itself equals 64? The answer is 8.
