What is the square root of 192 simplified?

Answer

√192 = 8√3

192 = 64 × 3, and 64 = 8² is the largest perfect square that divides 192, so √192 = √64 × √3 = 8√3. Check: 8√3 ≈ 13.856, the same as √192 ≈ 13.856.

Simplifying √192 Step by Step

1. Prime factorization. — All Prime Factors of 192:

192 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 3 = 26 × 3

2. Pair up equal primes. Each pair is a perfect square and comes out of the root as one factor; a prime without a partner stays under the radical.

3. Take the pairs out of the root.

√192 = √((2 × 2) × (2 × 2) × (2 × 2) × 3)

= 2 × 2 × 2 × √3

= 8√3

4. Check by squaring back.

8² × 3 = 64 × 3 = 192
