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.
| Prime factor | Times in 279 | Comes out of the root | Stays under the root |
|---|---|---|---|
| 3 | 2 | 3 | — |
| 31 | 1 | — | 31 |
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
