For this case we have the following expression:


\sqrt {64}

We have to:


64 = 8 * 8 = 8 ^ 2

By definition of properties of powers and roots we have to meet:


\sqrt [n] {a ^ m} = a ^ {\frac {m} {n}}

Then, rewriting the expression we have:


\sqrt {8 ^ 2} = 8 ^ {\frac {2} {2}} = 8 ^ 1 = 8

Thus, we have that the result is a whole number "8".

Answer:

whole number
