Sqrt(32)

Sqrt(32)

Enter square root or exponent statement:


Evaluate √32
Term 1 has a square root, so we evaluate and simplify:

Simplify √32.

Checking square roots, we see that 52 = 25 and 62 = 36.
Our answer in decimal format is between 5 and 6
Our answer is not an integer, so we try simplify it into the product of an integer and a radical.

We do this by listing each product combo of 32 checking for integer square root values below:
√32 = √1√32
√32 = √2√16
√32 = √4√8

From that list, the highest factor that has an integer square root is 16.
Therefore, we use the product combo √32 = √16√2
Evaluating square roots, we see that √16 = 4

Simplifying our product of radicals, we get our answer:
√32 = 4√2

Group square root terms for 4

4√2


Build final answer:

4√2
