Find the square root by factor 21904

mihalych1998 [28]

$21904|2\\10952|2\\.\ 5476|2\\.\ 2738|2\\.\ 1369|37\\.\ \ \ \ 37|37\\.\ \ \ \ \ \ 1|\\\\21904=2\times2\times2\times2\times37\times37=2^4\times37^2\\\\\sqrt{21904}=\sqrt{2^4\times37^2}=\sqrt{2^4}\times\sqrt{37^2}=2^2\times37=4\times37=148$

$\sqrt{21904}=\sqrt{4\times5476}=2\sqrt{4\times1369}=2\times2\sqrt37\times37}=4\times37=148$
