Final answer:


\(√(48)\) simplifies to
4√(3), by taking the square root of the perfect square factor 16 and multiplying it by the square root of the remaining factor 3.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the simplified form of
\(√(48)\), you should first look for perfect square factors contained within 48. The number 48 can be factored into 16 and 3, where 16 is a perfect square. Therefore, you can take the square root of 16 out of the square root sign.

The process goes as follows:

  1. Factor 48 into 16 × 3.
  2. Recognize that
    \(√(16) = 4\).
  3. Simplify
    \(√(48) = √(16 * 3) = 4√(3)\).

So the simplified form of
\(√(48)\) is
4√(3).
