Question

Simplify class="latex-formula">
Pls add an explanation on how you do this, I have no idea how to and I have to turn in a worksheet full of these by Friday.

Answer 1

Answer: 2√17

Step-by-step explanation: √68

The largest perfect square of the factors of 68 is 4. We can therefore convert √68 like this:

√4 × 17

Next, we separate the numbers inside the √ as such:

√4 × √17

√4 is a perfect square that equals 2. We can therefore put 2 outside the radical and get the final answer to square root of 68 in simplest radical form as follows:

2√17

Answer 2

Answer:
2sqrt(17)
Explanation:
First, prime factorize 68:
sqrt(2*2*17)
Notice we have 2^2 in the equation, so we can just bring 2 out of the square root;
2sqrt(17)
I hope this helped.
