What is the square root of 230 simplified?

Answer

√230 cannot be simplified — its simplest radical form is
√230

√230 is already in simplest form — 230 has no square factor other than 1, so nothing comes out of the radical. As a decimal, √230 ≈ 15.166.

Simplifying √230 Step by Step

1. Prime factorization. — All Prime Factors of 230:

230 = 2 × 5 × 23

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.

21—2
51—5
231—23

3. Take the pairs out of the root.

√230 = √(2 × 5 × 23)

No prime appears twice, so there is no pair to take out.

√230

4. Check by squaring back.

The only perfect square dividing 230 is 1 = 1², and 1² × 230 = 230
