Question

What is the `sqrt312` in simplest radical form?

Answer 1

See a solution process below:

Explanation:

First, rewrite the term as:

`sqrt(4 xx 78)`

We can then use this rule for radicals to simplify the expression:

`sqrt(color(red)(a) * color(blue)(b)) = sqrt(color(red)(a)) * sqrt(color(blue)(b))`

`sqrt(4 xx 78) => sqrt(4)sqrt(78) => 2sqrt(78)`
