    What is the square root of 279 simplified?

    Answer

    √279 = 3√31

    279 = 9 × 31, and 9 = 3² is the largest perfect square that divides 279, so √279 = √9 × √31 = 3√31. Check: 3√31 ≈ 16.703, the same as √279 ≈ 16.703.

    Simplifying √279 Step by Step

    1. Prime factorization. — All Prime Factors of 279:

    279 = 3 × 3 × 31 = 32 × 31

    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.

    √279 = √((3 × 3) × 31)

    = 3 × √31

    = 3√31

    4. Check by squaring back.

    3² × 31 = 9 × 31 = 279

    FAQ

    What is the square root of 279 simplified?

    √279 = 3√31

    Is 279 a perfect square?

    No. 279 = 9 × 31: its largest perfect square factor is 9 = 3², and the factor 31 stays under the radical, so √279 = 3√31.

    What is √279 as a decimal?

    √279 ≈ 16.703. The decimal never ends and never repeats, so it is always rounded; the exact value is 3√31.

    What is the largest perfect square that divides 279?

    9 = 3². Dividing gives 279 ÷ 9 = 31, and 31 has no square factor left, so √279 = √9 × √31 = 3√31.
