Question

Step-by-step to reduce the radical of the square root Of 160

Answer 1

4
`√(10)\\`

Explanation:

To reduce a radical of a square root, you want to find a perfect square that multiplies into that number. 16 is a perfect square (of 4) and can be divided into 160. so
`√(160\\)` becomes
`√(16)` x
`√(10)` (because 16 x 10 = 160) then we simplify the square root of 16 to be 4. We leave the square root of 10 because it cannot be simplified.

Hope this helps!

Answer 2

`4√(10)`

Explanation:

`√(160)`

`√(16 * 10)`

`4√(10)`

because 16 is a perfect square root and it splits into 4 * 4 while 10 isnt a perfect square root so it stays inside.
