    What is the square root of 296 simplified?

    Answer

    √296 = 2√74

    296 = 4 × 74, and 4 = 2² is the largest perfect square that divides 296, so √296 = √4 × √74 = 2√74. Check: 2√74 ≈ 17.205, the same as √296 ≈ 17.205.

    Simplifying √296 Step by Step

    1. Prime factorization. — All Prime Factors of 296:

    296 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 37 = 23 × 37

    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.

    √296 = √((2 × 2) × 2 × 37)

    = 2 × √(2 × 37)

    = 2√74

    4. Check by squaring back.

    2² × 74 = 4 × 74 = 296

    FAQ

    What is the square root of 296 simplified?

    √296 = 2√74

    Is 296 a perfect square?

    No. 296 = 4 × 74: its largest perfect square factor is 4 = 2², and the factor 74 stays under the radical, so √296 = 2√74.

    What is √296 as a decimal?

    √296 ≈ 17.205. The decimal never ends and never repeats, so it is always rounded; the exact value is 2√74.

    What is the largest perfect square that divides 296?

    4 = 2². Dividing gives 296 ÷ 4 = 74, and 74 has no square factor left, so √296 = √4 × √74 = 2√74.
